The Antioch Public Library began as an Antioch Women's Club project in 1921. Initially the Women's Club raised funds for the establishment of a village library and the residents donated books for the library. This first village library was located at 934 Main Street and was open only two days a week. In 1922 the library was moved to the Antioch Village Hall at 875 Main Street. In 1930 the library was moved again to the corner of Main Street and Depot Street. In 1941, the Library was moved again to 883 Main Street. In 1950 William Schroeder family donated the property located at 757 Main Street to the Village of Antioch for use as a library. The new library building was officially opened in 1970. In August 2001 construction began of an 18,000-square-foot addition to the Antioch Public Library facility. The construction was completed in January 2003.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://antiochdistrictlibrary.org/history.html |title=Antiochdistrictlibrary.org |website=antiochdistrictlibrary.org |access-date=January 28, 2020 |archive-date=April 25, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120425061212/http://antiochdistrictlibrary.org/history.html |url-status=dead}}</ref>
