About Carnegie Public Library

The history of the Carnegie Public Library began in 1901, when the library board applied for and received a $15,000 donation from Andrew Carnegie to begin construction on a library building. The Carnegie Public Library later opened in 1904 and was then renovated in 1995 to add a "Historical Collection Room". The construction of the Carnegie Public Library was constructed to be very reflective of Greek architectural order which is a part of the Classical Revival styled buildings seen throughout Trinidad, Colorado.

About CLiC

The Colorado Library Consortium (CLiC), headquartered in Centennial, Colorado, serves over 450 libraries throughout the state, many of which also belong to the AspenCat LibLime Koha union catalog. Currently the CLiC database includes over 1,000,000 items. Resource sharing is one of the key components of the system with libraries requesting over 1,200 items from each other every month. Requests are growing as more patrons discover how easy it is to request an item not held at his or her home library. CLiC is committed to maintaining AspenCat as a fully featured, patron-focused system. In partnership with the Colorado State Library, AspenCat offers integration with external databases using EZproxy, integration through the State Library's Plinkit-based web site hosting service, and interconnectivity with SWIFT, the statewide ILL system. AspenCat also currently offers a cooperative purchase for downloadable audio books from Recorded Books and eBooks from the 3M Library Cloud system.
