The Goodland City Library, at 120 W. 12th St. in Goodland, Kansas was built in 1912 and was used as a library for 60 years. It was designed with Italian Renaissance Revival architecture by Denver architects . It was one of 59 Carnegie libraries in Kansas; it was funded initially by a $10,000 Carnegie grant.

The building now houses the Carnegie Arts Center, which offers art exhibits, workshops, recitals, demonstrations, lectures and concerts.[1][2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1] It was deemed significant for its architecture and its "association with the cultural and educational history of the community."[2]
