Webber Park Library

The story of Webber Park Library spans more than a century: library service in the Camden neighborhood of north Minneapolis began in 1910 inside a Park Board field house on Webber Parkway. After a 1954 renaming, a 1980 relocation and a 2013 structural closure that sent the branch to a temporary home, a brand-new permanent building opened on Humboldt Avenue in 2017 — giving Camden its most modern library yet.

📖 About Webber Park Library

Webber Park Library serves the Camden neighborhoods of north Minneapolis from a purpose-built 2017 facility at 4440 Humboldt Avenue North. Library service in this corner of the city began in 1910, when the first library opened inside a Minneapolis Park Board field house on Webber Parkway and was known as Camden Library. The branch was renamed Webber Park Library in 1954 following a remodel, and in 1980 it relocated to a spot within Webber Park itself. That 1980 building closed in 2013 after a structural failure; during the years of rebuilding the branch operated out of a temporary location at Camden Center on Webber Parkway. The current building at Humboldt Avenue opened in 2017, completing a four-year reconstruction effort. The branch offers K–12 homework help tutoring, public computers, multilingual collections, meeting room space and rotating art installations.
