Pierre Bottineau Library (formerly Pierre Bottineau Community Library) is a branch library located in northeast Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It was named for Pierre Bottineau, a prominent Minnesota frontiersman[1] and is one of 41 libraries in the Hennepin County Library System. The library moved to its current location at the historic Grain Belt campus in 2003. The 12,355-square-foot (1,147.8 m2) facility combines two historic buildings, the 1893 Wagon Shed and the 1913 Millwright Shop,[1] with an addition designed by RSP Architects.[2]
