[change | change source]In 1876, a library was opened in a flour mill.[2]
In 1914, it was moved to a store. The store caught fire in 1918, causing the library to get moved to the Burwell School.
The Minneapolis Public Library sent books to help the library.
Current Library

In 1967, the Minnetonka Library replaced the Minnetonka Mills Library.
