The Carnegie Library is a historic building on the Fisk University campus in Nashville, Tennessee. The cornerstone was laid in 1908 by William Howard Taft, who was then the U.S. Secretary of War.[2] It was funded by Andrew Carnegie, who provided a number of academic libraries, as well as many public Carnegie libraries.

The library was designed by African-American architect Moses McKissack III; it was his first major design project. It is a two-story Classical Revival building constructed from brick with a stone columned porch, featuring an interior light well.[3] The upper floor was intended to provide a venue for musical performances.[4]

It is included in the Fisk University Historic District and was independently listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1][3] It now serves as the university's Academic Building.
