Drawing a Library
Learning to draw basic shapes that ultimately turn into fun buildings and scenes is always fun for any age. We love breaking down each of the drawings into a step-by-step guide.
I also think having the printable drawing tutorial helps in making the drawing come to life. Don't forget to print out the drawing at the bottom of the post to help walk you through each step.

Before you start drawing, we also want to make sure you have the right tools. Here are the drawing paper, and drawing pencils that we like to use.
How To Draw a Library
Start by printing out the free Library Step-by-Step Drawing Tutorial at the bottom of the blog post. Follow along the simple steps with a sheet of paper and pencil.
We recommend starting out with light pencil lines until you get the basic shapes you are looking for. You can always erase extra lines.
Grab a piece of paper, a pencil, and a ruler (optional) if you are looking for a straight edge when drawing the library. Here are the simple steps to how to draw a library.
Library Building Outline
Start with the base of the building being a rectangle. Then on top, draw a thin rectangle slightly smaller from the sides. Next, draw the roof of the library with a triangle shape and the sides coming down. Add an additional upside-down v along the roof line to create the roof.
The next step is to draw some of the details to the outside of your library. Start with an arch shape in the top roof portion of the library. Next, draw two vertical lines in the bottom rectangle dividing that shape into three pieces. Add a small rectangle between the bottom rectangle and the middle rectangle for the library sign.
Library Windows
Next, we're going to start adding the window details to your library. Add three lines in a fan shape in the arch at the top of the library. Then add two rectangle windows into each side of the large bottom rectangle. Add cross lines to the window to create window panes.
The next step is to add some arch windows with crosses inside each of them around where you believe the library door will be. We drew two next to each of the rectangle windows and then two at the top of the middle section of the bottom rectangle.
Library Door and Sign
Lastly, add a large rectangle below the two arched windows in the middle section. Draw a cross inside the rectangle to create the doors. I like to erase the line in the middle section right under the door. This gives the illusion that the door is offset from the front of the library. Also, add the "LIBRARY" sign above the door.
The last step is to erase all the extra lines. Trace over the lines you have drawn in pencil with a pen or marker. Viola, you have the final library drawing.
The final step if you choose to, is to color in your library drawing. Use crayons, colored pencils, and or markers.
Now you have the cutest Library Drawing!
