Finsbury Library is a public library in the London Borough of Islington, England.

Located at 245 St John Street, it is one of the borough's largest libraries and serves as a multi-purpose community hub, housing the Islington Museum, Local History Centre, and Islington Computer Skills Centre. The current building opened in 1967, replacing the historic Clerkenwell Free Library. The new building's design embodied the "library of light" style of the 1960s.
