The Carnegie Public Library at Huntington, West Virginia, formerly also known as the Cabell County Public Library, is a historic library building located on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and Ninth Street. It was the first public library in the county.[2] It served the community as a library until 1980, when a new library opened across the street. The building currently houses the Huntington Junior College.[3][4][5]
