Kenton County Public Library

In 1901, Andrew Carnegie donated $40,000 to establish a public library in Covington, Kentucky. The Covington Public Library first opened in temporary quarters in 1901 before moving to its permanent location in 1904. In 1967, a drive was held to establish the Kenton County Public Library system to serve the whole county. The system is now directed by Dave Schroeder and provides library services across multiple branches. The Covington library is currently undergoing renovations to expand its children's, technology, history, meeting, and teen spaces.
