Still providing library service to the citizens of Redfield, the Redfield Carnegie Library has the distinction of being the oldest Carnegie in continuous use as a library in South Dakota. The Redfield Carnegie Library began as a reading club with members buying books to circulate. A $10,000 endowment from the Andrew Carnegie Foundation was awarded in March 1902.
