The Carnegie Library Building in Carroll, Iowa, United States, is a building from 1905. The 60-by-38.5-foot (18.3 by 11.7 m) structure was designed in the Prairie School style by Omaha architect Thomas R. Kimball.[2] The Carnegie Corporation of New York had accepted Carroll's application for a grant for $10,000 on February 12, 1903.[3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]

The library is now home to the Carroll County Historical Museum, which is operated by the Carroll Historical Society.
