If you've still got a lot of Carnegie-built libraries in use in VT, I could see that. The nearest Carnegie library building to us, in the East Falls neighborhood of Philadelphia, dates from 1913. In Connecticut, the towns have grown enough over time that most of the public libraries moved into newer, larger buildings, so even though the libraries as institutions are old, the buildings they now use usually aren't. But it may be different in Vermont.
