Summary

Constructed in 1916, the Tekamah Carnegie Library is a one-and-one-half-story brick building. Previously lacking such a facility, the town's Commercial Club began planning for the library as early as 1914. After its completion, the Tekamah Carnegie Library made a significant contribution to the community's educational system.
