The Carnegie Library Building is an historic building in Athens, Georgia. It was one of many such libraries donated by Andrew Carnegie which were named Carnegie Library after him. Funds were donated on March 5, 1905, and construction was completed in 1910 on the site of the State Normal School.[2][3] On November 11, 1975, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

It was used as the Navy Supply Corps Museum when the campus was the base of the Navy Supply Corps School.[4][5]

The University of Georgia has renovated the building, which now houses a part of the university libraries. It has been given the name, Carnegie Library Learning Center.[6]
