The Sidney Carnegie Library is a historic building in Sidney, Nebraska. It was built in 1914 as a Carnegie library with funding from the Carnegie Corporation, and designed in the Tudor Revival architectural style.[2] There is a grotesque on each side of the main entrance. When the building was dedicated in 1917, it was the first public library in Cheyenne County, Nebraska.[2] A new public library building was built in 1967, and this building was repurposed as the Cheyenne County Chamber of Commerce.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 3, 1991.[1]
