The Hoopeston Carnegie Public Library is a Carnegie library located at 110 N. Fourth St. in Hoopeston, Illinois. Hoopeston's library program began in 1898, when the Mary Hartwell Catherwood Club started a library in the town hall. In 1903, the program acquired a $12,500 grant from the Carnegie Foundation for a library building; the building was completed in 1904. Architect James F. Alexander designed the Classical Revival building, which features a portico entrance supported by four Tuscan columns. In 1975, an addition was placed on the building.[2]

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 9, 2002.[1]
