The Gainsboro Branch Library is a public library in the Gainsboro neighborhood of Roanoke, Virginia. Built in 1941–1942, it is a one-story, seven-bay brick building with an L-plan, a gabled roof, and Tudor Revival styling. It holds a significant black history collection gathered by longtime librarian Virginia Lee, now displayed in a room named for her. The library was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
