The Goodnow Library is an historic public library building located at 21 Concord Road in Sudbury, Massachusetts. It is named for Sudbury-native John Goodnow, II, who died in 1851 and left to the town of Sudbury a 3-acre (12,000 m²) site for a library, $2,500 to build it and $20,000 to buy books and to maintain it. Construction of the two-story octagon-shaped building began in 1862 and was finished in 1863. In the 1990s it was expanded to its present size, but the original octagon survives as a reading room.
