<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

Public library service began in <a href="Tulsa_County" class="mw-redirect" title="Tulsa County">Tulsa County</a> in the early 1900s. The first library was located in the basement of the Tulsa County courthouse. A Carnegie Library Grant for $12,500 was issued in 1904. The grant was raised to $42,500 in 1913 and to $55,000 in 1915. The original Carnegie Library in downtown Tulsa was demolished in 1965.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a>

It wasn’t until the 1960s that what is today known as Tulsa City-County Library was born when, on November 14, 1961, an election was held in <a href="Tulsa_County" class="mw-redirect" title="Tulsa County">Tulsa County</a> to approve “the expenditure of $3.8 million to construct a new Central Library and three branches, plus a 1.9-mill annual levy for funding the system.” Tulsa voters approved “a countywide system to consolidate metropolitan and suburban libraries the following fiscal year” [Thompson, 115]. The Tulsa City-County Library Commission “officially assumed control of the Library System on July 1, 1962, when the 1.9-mill levy went into effect” [Thompson, 119]. “To be absorbed into the consolidated system were the Broken Arrow Library, founded by the Self Culture Club in 1906 but operated by the city since 1929; the Collinsville Library, created by the Comedy of Errors Club in 1913 and converted into a Carnegie library in 1917; a library in Skiatook opened with WPA funds and operated by the City of Skiatook; and Page Memorial Library of Sand Springs” [Thompson, 121].

By 1963, there were 16 libraries operating within the system [Thompson, 125]. In 1975-76, four new libraries were opened while a fifth was completed: The North Regional Library, the Jenks Library, the Pratt Library, the Skiatook Library, and the Martin Regional Library [Thompson, 154-155]. On August 22, 1978, voters approved State Question 507 to enable an increase in the mill levy [Thompson, 157]. A bond passed on May 12, 1998, that allowed TCCL to expand 11 library branches, replace two, and renovate another eight.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> Today the system consists of a Central Library, four regional libraries, 19 branches, a genealogy center, a bookmobile and homebound delivery service, and a services center.

In 2014, TCCL began publishing the Tulsa Book Review, an monthly publication distributed around the city and through the branch libraries. Tulsa Book Review is licensed from City Book Review.

The Central Library of the Tulsa City-County Library became one of six libraries in North America to be honored with the 2019 New Landmark Library designation from <a href="Library_Journal" title="Library Journal">Library Journal</a>.<a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a>
