Sigourney Public Library in Sigourney, Iowa, is a single-story brick structure designed by the Chicago architectural firm Patton, Holmes & Flinn in a hybrid Bungalow and Colonial Revival style. Built on a raised foundation and completed in 1914, the building features a symmetrical facade with a slightly projected entrance and a hipped roof. Funded by a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York—part of a major initiative that supported 101 public libraries across Iowa—the library was dedicated in May 1914. The original structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. The library relocated to a renovated grocery store building on Iowa Highway 92 in 2005.
