This was one of nearly 1700 free public libraries in the United States funded by Andrew Carnegie. His foundation donated $12,000 in 1906 for this building, and the city contributed another $4,000. The classical Greek architecture was the choice of Richard Haydock, Oxnard's first mayor, who applied for the Carnegie funds. The building served as a library until 1963. The lower floor was the city hall until 1949.
