Old North Manchester Public Library is a historic Carnegie library building located at North Manchester, Wabash County, Indiana. It was built in 1912, and is a two-story, rectangular, American Craftsman style dark red brick building over a basement. It has a low-pitched side gable roof of red Spanish tile and wide overhanging eaves. The building corners feature massive piers with sloping sides. It was built in part with a $10,000 donation from the Carnegie Foundation.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The building no longer contains a public library; since the 1990s, it is owned by a private law firm. The "new" North Manchester Public Library is located at 405 North Market Street.
