The Cherryvale Carnegie Free Library is a Carnegie library located at 329 E. Main in Cherryvale, Kansas. The library was built in 1913 through a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Foundation. Architect George P. Washburn, who also designed eight other Carnegie libraries in Kansas, designed the library in the Classical Revival style.^[2] The red brick library has three bays in its facade. The library's recessed entrance is a classical pavilion with a brick frieze and supporting Tuscan columns and brick pillars; the doorway is topped with a limestone lintel. The low roof of the library is surrounded by a parapet.^[3]

The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 18, 1987.^[1]
