By 1913, the Sacramento City Library collection had expanded to fill the 5,763 sq. ft. main library at 716 I Street, and the Sacramento Veteran Knights of Pythias applied to the Carnegie Corporation for the building of a new city library at the corner of 9th and I Streets.
The three-story Italian Renaissance Revival style Sacramento Carnegie library opened on I street between 8th and 9th in 1918, replacing an earlier 1872 building one block to the west. The library was designed by Loring P. Rixford and was financed in large part by a $100,000 grant from Carnegie.
