the library building has two parts, a main block constructed of brick in 1922 and a rear extension framed in wood and built in 1991. the main block is laid in running bond above a row of soldier bricks laid on the concrete foundation, and is topped by a side gable roof. the main facade, facing east, has a central projecting gable-roofed portico supported by modified doric pilasters and columns. the main wall under the portico, surrounding the entrance, is stuccoed. the wooden door is topped by a semicircular fanlight set in moulded trim. the rear wood-frame addition is more utilitarian, and is clad in vinyl siding.
