Hove Public Library, Grade II listed public library in Hove, England.
The building on Church Road features a two-story structure with a large domed ceiling that fills the interior space with natural light.
The library opened in 1908 following a £10,000 donation from Andrew Carnegie and arose from a public vote supporting free access to books.
The building serves as a central point for community gatherings, hosting regular writing workshops, book groups, and family activities throughout the year.
Members can access digital resources including eBooks, eAudiobooks, and online newspapers through platforms such as BorrowBox, Libby, and Pressreader.
The library building incorporates architectural elements from both Edwardian Baroque and Renaissance Revival styles, designed by Percy Robinson and W. Alban Jones.
