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]

Early history

Prior to this building being built, the Rockingham Free Public Library occupied a room in the lower floor of the town's opera house.[3] Before that, there was a subscription library founded on October 28, 1799, as the Rockingham Library Society.[3] The book collection moved around town occupying a room in the town's first high school, and a local drug store.[4]: 596  The town's first public library card was issued in 1888.[6]
