Construction was delayed due to the 1910 forest fire that broke out August 20. The fire eventually burned three million acres of timber, and 85 were killed. Rains on Aug 31 finally ended the fire. The library was eventually built in April 1911 at a total cost of $15,300. Architecturally it is an excellent period example.
