Best Answer

Irene Hazard Gerlinger of Dallas, Oregon founded the Dallas Public Library in 1905 in a room of the old Fireman's Hall, and in 1912, a building was constructed with local funds.

The library received a supporting grant for $10,000 on December 7, 1911, from Andrew Carnegie's Carnegie Corporation of New York. His corporation helped build 1,679 public libraries in the United States between the years 1883 and 1929.
