Peter White Public Library, Public library in Marquette, United States.
Peter White Public Library is a multi-level building at 217 North Front Street that provides spaces for reading, studying, and community events. The collection includes physical and digital materials serving residents from surrounding townships and areas.
The facility opened in 1891 and received a new building completed in 1904 designed by Chicago-based architects Patton and Miller. That structure has shaped the town's appearance since its construction.

The building sits centrally near the waterfront and is easy to reach on foot with clear signage for visitors. On-site parking and accessible areas make it straightforward to enter regardless of mobility needs.
The facility received a National Medal from the Institute of Museum and Library Services in 2010, a rare honor recognizing outstanding achievement among American libraries. This award reflects the important role it plays in the community.
