Description |
The Hammond Public Library began its life in 1903 as the Shakespeare Club. By 1905, the library was officially founded by a grant from Andrew Carnegie and had moved from the small millenary shop it was located at to a newly built building in Central Park. In 1967 the library was moved to State Street. There the new library remained thus, until the early 2000's when it was remodeled to become what it is today.
