Everton Library is a disused library building in Everton Brow, Liverpool. Designed by architect and Liverpool City Surveyor Thomas Shelmerdine and constructed in 1896, it remained in use as a library until 1999. It was used by various community groups up until 2006, and has been derelict since. There are plans in progress to convert the building for use as an arts, culture, heritage and enterprise centre.[2] In September 2019, it was named on the Victorian Society's list of the top ten most endangered buildings in England and Wales.[3]
