The Louisville Main Library is the main branch of the Louisville Free Public Library, which is a public library system serving the city of Louisville, Kentucky.

Description and history

The Louisville Main Library is sited at Fourth and York streets, south of Broadway, adjacent to downtown Louisville. In 1969, a $4 million north building was added to the classicizing Carnegie structure. This provided an additional 110,000 square feet (10,000 m²) of floor space, compared to the 42,000 sq ft (3,900 m²) in the original building.
