The library started in 1943 as a subscription library, after the donation of $5 by 70 families living in Los Alamos. In 1945 it became free and open to all. In 1985 a branch library opened in White Rock. In 1994 the Los Alamos branch moved into a building designed by architect Antoine Predock and located west of Fuller Lodge.
In 2015, the White Rock branch moved into a new building next to the White Rock Youth Activity Center.
