On March 20, 1903, the city of Cadillac, Michigan, received a grant of $15,000 to build a public library at 127 Beech Street. The library was completed three years later at a total cost of $30,000.

After library operations moved into a larger facility in 1969, the building was taken over by the city's police department until 1977. A proposal from the Wexford County Historical Society to repurpose the building as a museum saved it from demolition.
