Camden Place Delivery Station, 1895–1910
On May 6, 1895, the Minneapolis Public Library heard petitions for a library in Camden, Minneapolis. The delivery station opened in September 1895. The original station was in the Coffin's Drug Store. The library was intended to close in 1905, but was active until 1910.[1]
Camden Library, 1910–1954
The John D. Webber Memorial house was built in 1910. The Camden Branch of Minneapolis Public Library was moved to the second floor. In 1939, the park was renamed to Webber Park. The library soon became too small for the population.
Webber Park Library, 1954–present
In 1954 the library was renamed to the Webber Park Library. In 1979 the building was destroyed to make way for a swimming pool. A new Webber Park Library was built in 1980.
Webber Park was one of 15 libraries that were merged from Minneapolis Public Library to Hennepin County Library in 2008.
The building was destroyed in 2013 because of structural failure. A temporary location opened in December 2013 at Camden Center. The new building opened on May 18, 2017.
