Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Libraries in the District of Columbia In 1897 the District of Columbia Library Association published a small handbook of the libraries in the District, and in 1898 a supplement thereto. In 1910 a new edition was proposed, and a committee (consisting of Miss Claribel A. Barnett, Mr. Willard O.Waters, with Mr. H. H. B. Meyer as chairman) was appointed to compile it. This committee did some preliminary work in formulating a plan of procedure, enlarging the list of libraries, and preparing a blank form for statistics, etc. Pressure of official duties prevented the work from going further. Upon the announcement of the meeting of the American Library Association in Washington this year, it became obvious that such a handbook, in a revised edition, would be a Convenience to the delegates. It was determined, therefore, to complete the data, so far as this proved possible within the limited time available, and to issue the new edition, even if imperfect. Upon the chairman of the committee, as in the best position to expedite the undertaking, the responsibility then fell; and as he is the Chief Bibliographer of the Library of Congress, the publication itself has been undertaken by this Library - which in any event would have been appropriate. For the reasons explained above, as a statement it is doubtless lacking both in completeness and accuracy of detail. There has not been time even to submit the items for revision to the various libraries described. It may be perfected in a later edition. In the meantime, it may prove serviceable as it stands.

Download or read book American Libraries 1730 1950 written by Kenneth A. Breisch and published by W. W. Norton. This book was released on 2017 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although new technologies appear poised to alter it, the library remains a powerful site for discovery, and its form is still determined by the geometry of the book and the architectural spaces devised to store and display it. American Libraries provides a history and panorama of these much-loved structures, inside and out, encompassing the small personal collection, the vast university library, and everything in between. Through 500 photographs and plans selected from the encyclopedic collections of the Library of Congress, Kenneth Breisch traces the development of libraries in the United States, from roots in such iconic examples as the British Library and Paris's Bibliotheque-Ste.-Genevieve to institutions imbued with their own American mythology. Starting with the private collections of wealthy merchants and landowners during the eighteenth century, the book looks at the Library of Congress, large and small public libraries, and the Carnegie libraries, and it ends with a glimpse of modern masterworks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young readers of all ages will love this story about President Thomas Jefferson, who found his passion as soon as he learned to read: books, books, and more books! Before, during, and after the American Revolution, Jefferson collected thousands of books on hundreds of subjects. In fact, his massive collection eventually helped rebuild the Library of Congress—now the largest library in the world. Author Barb Rosenstock's rhythmic words and illustrator John O'Brien's whimsical illustrations capture Jefferson's zeal for the written word as well as little-known details about book collecting. An author's note, bibliography, and source notes for quotations are also included.
