Rockingham Free Public Library is one of four Carnegie Libraries in the state of Vermont.[1] The building, in Bellows Falls, Vermont, a village of Rockingham, Vermont, was designed by Boston architects McLean & Wright in Classical Revival style.[2][3] The Carnegie grant was offered in 1905. The town took a while to decide on allocating matching funds.[4] The library officially opened on November 23, 1909.[3] A children's annex was added to the building in 1929.[5] In 2003 a new entryway and elevator were added for improved accessibility.[5]
