Theodore Burr House (also known as Oxford Memorial Library) is a historic home located at Oxford in Chenango County, New York. It is a box like, wood-frame 2-story building with recessed 1+12-story wings. It was built between 1810 and 1812 by Theodore Burr (1771–1822), one of the founding settlers of Oxford. It was a private residence until 1843, then a rectory until 1900 when it became the public library building.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 1981.[1]
