Paso Robles Historical Society Carnegie Library

This was an interesting library. I love how they displayed the life of Paso Robles. I love the antiques and how everything was organized in glass cabinets for showing. Thank you for having this and learning about the city we visit and live in!

First — Thank You Mr. Carnegie for the Library Building. It was in the past the primary library for Paso Robles, however the hew facility, (it is across from the park in Spring Street) is much much larger. Now lets get back on track. the Historical Society for Paso Robles is simply wonderful. Display of the history of Paso Robles are so well done, and the treasure of books about the history and more and more. If you are a local to the area there is so much to digest, it can be overwhelming. If you are from out of the area it is a nice stop to get a fell for how Paso Robles was. Either way it is an enjoyable stop.
also — The book /​gift store is small and packed with good history books and simple remembrances of the past. Some good gifts here that you won’t find in other places.

This building is one of many that the titan Carnegie left behind as part of his legacy in America. Small in size, but classy in format and design, the current usage of this structure serves as Paso Robles’s homage to the past. Up until 1995, this building was used as the Paso Library until they built the beautiful new structure across the street.
Although no longer used as a library on a day to day basis, the PRHSCL is certainly worth looking at, as Paso Robles has a rich and enduring legacy which is captured magnificently in the displays within.
