Status: Still in use as a library (see 2005 photo below). According to Bill Davidson: "The library was built in 1905 with $10,000 from Andrew Carnegie. We have retained the original furniture in the reading rooms and check out desk. The building is now handicap accessible, has a genealogy room, and the lower level is now almost entirely devoted to our young readers." |
