In 1902, a representative for the Mutual Improvement Club leaders contacted Carnegie. The city of Bryan agreed to proved $1,000 per year for the library.
The library was designed by Texas A&M College Professor Fred R. Giesecke. The building is a Greek Revival Style, in a Greek Cross plan, the building was to be of red brick and fronted by four enormous Greek Corinthian columns topped with acanthus leaves.
