Dustbury's Local Library
- Andrew Carnegie’s support of 2,509 free public libraries around the turn of the 19th to 20th century.
- The heroic achievements of Miss Lutie Stearns, a librarian who brought books to nearly 1400 locations in Wisconsin through “traveling little libraries” between 1895 and 1914.

Carnegie did one here around the turn of the century, which was eventually replaced by a soulless box for the bourgeoisie, itself now redundant. (The new downtown library is, to borrow an overused term, awesome; the bunker is being converted to lofts.)
