The historic Duluth Public Library is a former Carnegie library building at 101 West Second Street in Duluth, Minnesota, United States. It was constructed in 1902 as the first purpose-built facility of the Duluth Public Library.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 for its local significance in the themes of architecture and education.[3] It was nominated for its Neoclassical architecture and association with early community education efforts.[2]
Library services relocated to a new downtown facility in 1980, after which the historic library was renovated and converted into an office building.[4][5]
