Today's library was founded in 1904 by the Liberal Association of the City of Regensburg and the surrounding area as a public library . In 1919 it was attached to the advanced training school. After the Second World War, it was set up in the Alte Wache on Neupfarrplatz . Branch offices were opened in 1951 and 1954. After a few more moves in the following years, it is located at its current location, in the Thon-Dittmer-Palais , together with the German-American Institute and has been renamed the Deutsche Volksbücherei . In March 1963 Regensburg declares that it is ready to pay for the maintenance of the library in full. Therefore it was renamed the City Library .
