A. K. Smiley Public Library, Historic public library in Redlands, United States

The A. K. Smiley Public Library is a library at 125 W. Vine St. in Redlands, California, built in 1898 to a design by architect T. R. Griffith. Its tile roof and parapets above side arcades point to Mission Revival, while the battlement and curved parapet are Moorish Revival; the arcade arches, windows and roof ridge borrow from classical, Gothic, Spanish Romanesque and Oriental themes.

The library was built in 1898 with funds donated to Redlands by philanthropist Albert K. Smiley, and architect T. R. Griffith designed it. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 1976, and designated a California Historical Landmark on August 17, 1990. It still serves as the Redlands public library.

The library holds a collection of materials on California's native tribes donated by Andrew Carnegie, alongside rare materials on Southern California and local history. The building sits within Smiley Park Historic District, next to the Redlands Bowl and the Lincoln Memorial Shrine.

The library stands at 125 W. Vine St., inside Smiley Park Historic District, next to the Redlands Bowl and the Lincoln Memorial Shrine. The building still operates as Redlands' public library, so visitors enter to use its collections rather than as a museum. Rare materials on Southern California and local history, plus Andrew Carnegie's donation on California native tribes, are held here.
