Albany Carnegie Library

On March 1, 1906, the Carnegie Public Library was opened to the public. Through the years, many additions and renovations were made to the interior of the library. A hardwood floor was laid, fluorescent lights installed, and new shelving installed. The original tables were refinished and new chairs purchased. Currently in the foyer is a display case that was donated to the library after Hardin’s Drug Store closed. On March 1, 1990 and a commemorative bronze plaque was placed outside near the front door listing the library on the National Register of Historic Places.
