The history of the building is full of difficulties and adversities. Eliza Ozheshko's will stated that after her death the house had to be transferred to the Grodno Child Custody Society. In 1911, the will of the writer was fulfilled. In the mid-20s, a trading school was placed in the house, and in 1940 — a music school. Fortunately, the building survived the war. After the end of hostilities, the Regional Project placed its management here. Then the house became a blood transfusion station, and even later an inventory bureau. The building became a haven for the House of Pioneers in 1948.

The library's reading room was opened in 1958. In the same year, the writer's museum was opened. In the 60s, the building was occupied by the Regional Writers' Union.

Time has not spared the old building. In 1976, the dilapidated building was dismantled, and a new copy of it was built nearby, away from the road. The building underwent another reconstruction in 2009.

At the moment, the library is still functioning in the house. A branch of the Writers' Union is also located here. The latest equipment makes it possible to work with books even for people with disabilities.
