Library Interior, 2004
Iowa City Public Library (Iowa City, Iowa)
After more than two years of construction the doors opened to the new building June 12, 2004. The current ICPL location is an expansion and renovation of the 1981 building, its current space nearly double that of the original. A successful November 2000 bond referendum vote helped in funding this project. The design of the current building, with its tall windows and additional seating, is a marked change from the earlier building. Self-check features were also installed during this building's renovation.

Iowa City Carnegie Library Addition, 1963
Iowa City Public Library (Iowa City, Iowa)
An addition of 14,000 square-feet was built onto the Carnegie building and dedicated on Sunday, November 10, 1963. The need for more library space was primarily attributed to an increased population and a record-breaking amount of library circulation. When completed, this addition enclosed the east side of the original building entirely.
