Berlin's Carnegie library was opened in 1904 and was located on Queen Street North at the corner of Weber Street, Berlin (later Kitchener), Ontario. The building was renovated in 1916 to include a wing for a Children's Library, a second floor addition and a history room in the basement. The Carnegie Library was replaced by a new library building located at 85 Queen Street North in May 1962.
