Cleveland Public Library's (CPL) MLK, Jr. campus originally opened on June 14, 1970 as CPL's first regional library.

At 18,200 square feet, the MLK, Jr. campus was one of CPL's largest libraries at that time and housed the most expansive reference collection of any Cleveland Public Library, including a Black studies program and an urban collection.

The new MLK, Jr. campus opened on January 25, 2025. Spanning nearly 30,000 square feet, it is the largest Cleveland Public Library building outside of the historic Main Library in Downtown Cleveland.

The library's design focuses on the legacy and teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., including an expansive center table modeled after Dr. King's Table of Brotherhood.

The library houses the prestigious Anisfield-Wolf Book Award collection, the only juried American book prize focusing on works that address racism and diversity, and the Norman A. Sugarman Children’s Biography Award winners, a collection of outstanding biographies for children in grades K-8.
