Broad Street Library is one of three built in Coventry in 1911-12 with funds provided by the Carnegie Foundation. For a fuller description and a photo of the building as seen from the street, see here Image The library was rebuilt after an arson attack in 2003, and this extension has presumably been added since then. The lawn is used for storytelling sessions for young children. The small dome or turret belongs to the original Carnegie building.
