We've recently learned (Thanks to Virginia and Carole!) that our library was designed by the Prairie School architectural firm of Claude and Starck. The firm was responsible for the design of63 Carnegie public libraries in Wisconsin. The construction of Carnegie public and academic librariesthroughout the midwest was fundedthrough the generosity of the industrialist Andrew Carnegie, to promoteliteracy. While construction of the Boscobel Library in 1926 was enabled by a gift from localbusinessman George F. Hildebrand, our library also shares the proud architectural history of the Claude and Starck Carnegies.
