The Sterling Free Public Carnegie Library is a Carnegie library located at 132 N. Broadway in Sterling, Kansas. The library was built in 1916 through a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Foundation and housed Sterling's library association, which formed in 1902. Architect R. W. Stookey of George P. Washburn & Co. designed the library in the Jacobethan style. The one-story red brick building features a cross gable roof. The main entrance is in a projecting gabled pavilion; its doorway has a quoined limestone surround. The frieze over the doorway and a date tablet in the entrance's gable are also made of limestone.[2]

The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 25, 1987.[1]
