Cobb Memorial Library is a historic library building in Truro, Massachusetts. The library was established through a donation by Elisha Wiley Cobb made in memory of his parents, and was built in 1912. It is a rare example of Craftsman style architecture in the town. The building served as the town's main library until 1999, when a new building was constructed in North Truro. The building has since been converted for use by the Truro Historical Society.[2] The library was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[1]
