Carnegie Library
In 1906 the Commissioner of the Colquitt County Board of Education petitioned Andrew Carnegie for funds to construct a public library to serve the county. On December 3 that same year Carnegie granted a donation of $10,000 to be used to library construction on the terms the city pay an annual maintenance fee of $1,000 towards keeping the building in good condition. A lot on the corner of West Broad and Crawford streets was purchased by library trustees and designated at the site for the library. The blueprints for the building called for a mixture of different architectural designs based primarily off Colonial Revival. In addition to space for the library's collection an auditorium was included on the second floor to "provide for meetings of a social and literary character in connection with a library association." The building was used at a library until it was sold in 1973 to be renovated into law offices. In 1982 it was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

County library system
As library service grew in Moultrie a bookmobile service was launched in the mid-1950s to increase outreach for rural areas. By 2016 this service was reaching over 1,200 people each year from municipalities far from the county library. Owing to a lack of space in the Carnegie Library plans began in the 1960s to construct a new, larger library complex. Known today as the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library the new building was opened in 1964.

The library is home to a second branch, the Doerun Municipal Library, which is located in Doerun, Georgia.
