It was one of the many Carnegie libraries that were funded by steel magnate Andrew Carnegie, who awarded the city $12,500 to construct it.[2] The Hanford Library was open in the Carnegie building until 1968, when the city and Kings County libraries were combined and moved into new building. Concerned local citizens raised the money to save the old library building from destruction, and to renovate it.[2] MuseumThe Hanford Carnegie Museum opened in the restored Carnegie Library building in 1974.[2] The history museum has displays of Victorian furniture, antiques, and vintage photographs, to describe the history of Hanford's people and the area in the western San Joaquin Valley.[3][4] See also{{Portal|Libraries}}
