The Cooper Institute was originally built by architects Campbell Douglas and James Sellars. The library was added in 1923 by architect John Alfred Taylor Houston on the bequest of Robert Couper. The institute and its library are now are now listed buildings, category B. HistoryThe library was built in 1923-24 by J A T Houston as part of building extensions to the northern side of the existing Couper Institute (built 1887) which were delayed by the first world war.[1] The library was designed in an English Baroque style, while the earlier hall presents the Scots Renaissance tradition.[2] Local paper mill owner Robert Couper left 'about £8000' for a library, reading room and hall to be built on the site.[3] The building was listed as category B by Historic Environment Scotland in 1970.[4] See also{{Portal|Libraries}}
