Description
An account of the resource
1896- The twenty-fifth General Assembly created the Traveling Library Commission. By an act approved on April 8, 1896, the State Library trustees were empowered to establish associate libraries in school and college libraries throughout the State. The State Librarian was directed to issue to such local libraries certificates as such.. The law left to the trustees and the State Librarian the development of the details of a loaning system, including the loan of books, in response to a taxpayers' petition, to communities and organizations where no library existed. The sum of $4,000 was appropriated "for the purchase of books and equipment of collections of books," and collections to be loaned were to be designated as "Iowa Traveling Libraries."

Description
An account of the resource
The building was designed by architect Oliver O. Smith in 1898 in the Beaux Arts style. It is one of the oldest buildings in the Iowa State Capitol Complex. The building initially housed the Iowa State Historical Society, which up to this time had three rooms in the capitol building. They moved here in 1899 and stayed until their present building was completed in 1987. After an historic renovation the building was renamed in honor of Ola Babcock Miller, Iowa’s first female Secretary of State. The building now houses the State Library of Iowa, which has occupied space in the building since 1912.
