if you are ever in roane county, tennessee doing genealogy research, i suggest that you stop in at harriman's public library. though its genealogy secetion is small, it's still a good place to look for local information and to see one of our nation's carnegie libraries in what must be very close to its original form. a few contemporary photographs and a brief history of harriman, tennessee's historic carnegie library are available online at the library's site.

the building is located on walden street, separated from another of harriman's early important buildings - the american temperance building - only by harriman's busy firestation.
