The library was built in 1907-08 to house the city's public library, which was formed in 1875 and had previously occupied a room in the town hall. The city's first attempt at building a Carnegie library came in 1901, but it could not secure funding to match Carnegie's $20,000 grant; later in the decade, it approved additional community funding and convinced Carnegie to supply an additional $5,000. Chicago architects Patton & Miller, who were well known for their work on Carnegie libraries, designed the Classical Revival building. The library's design includes an entrance flanked by four stone columns and topped by a portico, stone pilasters to either side of the front windows, and a classical entablature with a frieze and dentillated cornice.[2] The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 31, 2006.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}{{NRHP in Henry County, Illinois}}{{Illinois-NRHP-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Sayers|first1=John E.|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Kewanee Public Library|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/118515.pdf|publisher=Illinois Historic Preservation Agency|accessdate=February 27, 2016|date=January 2006}} 6 : Libraries on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois|Carnegie libraries in Illinois|Neoclassical architecture in Illinois|Library buildings completed in 1908|National Register of Historic Places in Henry County, Illinois|1908 establishments in Illinois |
