The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A total of 2,509 Carnegie libraries were built between 1883 and 1929, including some belonging to public and university library systems.
- Most of them – 1,689 – were built in the United States, with 660 in the United Kingdom and Ireland, 125 in Canada, and 25 others in Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Serbia, Belgium, France, the Caribbean, Mauritius, Malaysia, and Fiji.
- At first, Carnegie libraries were almost exclusively in places with which he had a personal connection: his birthplace in Scotland and the area around his adopted hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Carnegie library article was read about 150,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
