The Chadron Public Library, at 507 Bordeaux St. in Chadron, Nebraska, is a historic Carnegie library in a Classical Revival-style building designed by architect George A. Berlinghof. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]

It was funded by a $5,000 Carnegie grant upon a second application, after the first was rejected. It was designed for just $100 by "noted Lincoln architect" George A. Berlinghof, who happened to be working in Chadron on a larger commission. The contractor was the Black Hills Company, a Deadwood architecture and contracting firm.[2]
