Jessie M. Carson (March 29, 1876 – September 6, 1959) was an American librarian who was appointed the director of children's libraries for the American Committee for Devastated France in 1920. Along with several other children's librarians on leave of absence from the New York Public Library, Carson rehabilitated four libraries devastated by the war and began training young French women in American librarianship practices. She is credited with making lasting change in French libraries, particularly by extending services to children, who had not traditionally been served by French libraries.
Carson was born in Bellevue, Pennsylvania on March 19, 1876. She died in Rye, New York on September 6, 1959 at the age of 83.
A novel based on Carson's life, titled Miss Morgan's Book Brigade, was written by Janet Skeslien Charles and was released in 2024 by Simon & Schuster.
