In 1892 the Fostoria High School Alumni Library was opened to the public with a membership fee of $1.00 per year. In 1900 a grant from the city of Fostoria was obtained so that the library became "free" to all citizens. Money was donated by Mrs. Louisa McClean and a grant from Andrew Carnegie made it possible for the Library to be built on its present site in 1913. The generosity of Fostorian Arthur Kaubisch made a large addition possible in 1968. Another significant gift was presented by Don and Judy Miller and the citizens of Fostoria passed a five year tax levy to add yet another addition in 1989.
