Andrew Carnegie was a Scottish-born businessman who lived from 1835-1919. He made his fortune in the Steel Industry. After retiring, he became known as a great philanthropist. (A philanthropist is someone who hopes to make all of society better, often by supporting a charity.)  Because of his generous gifts the first Frankfort Library building was constructed. The Children's Dept. is housed in one of the many Carnegie Libraries, located throughout the English-Speaking world.
