The Colfax Carnegie Library, also known as Colfax Public Library, is a historic Carnegie library located at Colfax, Clinton County, Indiana. It was built in 1917, and is a 1+12-story, Classical Revival style brick building on a raised basement. It features a red terra cotta style hipped roof and decorative frieze. It was built in part with $9,000 provided by the Carnegie Foundation.[2]: 5 

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1] The historic Carnegie library remains in operation today as a public library; its name has been changed to "Colfax-Perry Township Public Library" to accurately represent its wider service area.[3]
