Roseville Carnegie Library

Concerned by the lack of adequate library facilities in 1910, the Women’s Improvement Club convinced the City Board of Trustees to contribute $2,000 and apply to Andrew Carnegie for a $10,000 grant, which was received on April 25, 1911. Local businessman A.B. McRae donated the land for the building. Dedicated on October 12, 1912, the library served the citizens of Roseville as a library and meeting place until November 7, 1982. The Roseville Historical Society and the City of Roseville has restored and preserved the building for the continued use of Roseville’s citizens.
