Thomas Scott Buckham Memorial Library
Thomas Scott Buckham Memorial Library, Art Deco library in Faribault, United States.

The library, established in 1929 through Anna Buckham's donation in memory of her husband, joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
Four classical murals inside the library, painted by Alfred J. Hyslop, represent different aspects of Greek culture from the fourth century BC.

The building incorporates dolomite limestone from Kasota quarries and displays a combination of Art Deco and late Gothic Revival architectural elements.
