While in Iron Mountain on business during 1901, Andrew Carnegie saw the need for a library on the Menominee Iron Range, which was then a prospering area. He donated fifteen thousand dollars for this building. Serving the community for over seventy years, the Neoclassical Revival structure, designed by James E. Clancy, was one of the earliest Carnegie libraries in the Great Lake State. In 1971 this edifice became the Menominee Range Museum, featuring the history of its namesake.
