The Sterling Public Library, at 210 S. 4th St. in Sterling, Colorado, was built in 1918. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
It was built as a Carnegie library, funded by a $12,500 Carnegie grant, and was built during 1916 to 1918.[2] It is about 61 by 31 feet (18.6 m × 9.4 m) in plan.[3] It served as Sterling's public library for 58 years, until 1976.[2]
It was designed by Denver architect William Cowe, a Scottish immigrant who died in 1930.[3]
During much of 2001 to 2010 it served as the Old Library Inn, a bed and breakfast; it has been a private residence since then.[2]
A 100-year anniversary event at the library in June 2018 raised funds for the Sterling Community Fund.[2]
