In the summer of 1979, the St. Cloud Public Lbrary moved from its 1902 Carnegie building at 124 Fifth Avenue South to a successor building at 405 West Germain Street. This photograph shows a moving truck loaded with book carts transferring library materials. The National Guard assisted with the move.
A moving truck is parked behind the St. Cloud Public Library building. Behind the truck is the former Unity Church, which was purchased by the City of St. Cloud in 1936 and renamed the Community Building. Stearns County Library occupied this structure from the early 1940s until the creation of the Great River Regional Library system in 1969, after which it housed the Branch and Bookmobile Department of GRRL.
