Hollister Carnegie Library
The Hollister Carnegie Library (previously: Hollister Free Public Library; now Hollister City Hall) is located on 375 Fifth Street in Hollister, California, US. Established in 1912 as a Carnegie library, decades later, it was re-purposed as a city hall. The building is part of the downtown's National Register-listed historic district,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=National Register of Historic Places in San Benito County )〕 and was entered itself into the National Register on March 26, 1992.
==History==
The city's public library, established in 1884, transitioned into the Hollister Library Association, the Mechanics Library Association, and the Woman's Christian Temperance Union reading room. Though the library underwent an expansion after moving into a house on Fifth Street in the early 20th century, it was considered to be too small for the community.〔 After receiving a $10,000 grant from the Andrew Carnegie Library Foundation in 1910, construction of a Carnegie library began in 1911 at 375 Fifth Street. Designed by William Binder of San Jose, the contractor was E. J. Sparling of Hollister.〔 Costs associated with the project included US$2,034 for the lot, $9,983 for the building, and $500 for the furnishings. In 1960, the Holister library and the San Benito County library consolidated, moving into a new building at 470 Fifth Street,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Library History )〕 while the Carnegie building was re-purposed as a city hall.
