Carnegie Library with north side addition, June 1975. 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.

Steam Laundry building at 211 Iowa Ave. opening its doors on Thursday January 21, 1897. The library initially employed one librarian and held a total of 1,300 books. Public outcry for more positive spaces for Iowa City's youth was a major catalyst in the public library's inception.

While rent at this new location was an additional $125 per year, additional space, improved lighting, and more desirable library quarters were among the reasons for the move.

Crowded conditions in the Carnegie Library location were a major factor in the construction of the new location. Around this time, major technological changes were being introduced to ICPL. The card catalog was eventually closed and a new computer-assisted circulation system was put into place.
