The West Lebanon-Pike Township Public Library in West Lebanon, Indiana, United States, is a Carnegie library serving southwestern Warren County. Its original 3,060-square-foot (284 m2) brick-and-limestone building was constructed in 1916 using a $7,500 gift from Andrew Carnegie. A $610,000 renovation in 2006 added 1,768 square feet (164.3 m2) of floor space, plus better access for handicapped patrons, more shelf space and a multi-purpose children's activity room.[2] The library's collection contains approximately 12,000 books.
