Gresham Carnegie Library

Gresham Carnegie Library in 2008

The Gresham Carnegie Library, is a historic building in Gresham, Oregon. The Tudor style building was built in 1913[1] and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in January 2000.[2] It served as a public library in the Multnomah County Library system from 1913 until December 1989 when the Gresham Library opened.[3]

At that time the Gresham Historical Society purchased the building and opened the Gresham History Museum.[4] The building underwent six-months of renovations in 2012.[3]
