Download or read book A Book of Carnegie Libraries Classic Reprint written by Theodore Wesley Koch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Carnegie Libraries The earlier buildings figuring in the illustrations and de scribed in the present volume show the development of library architecture under the early stimulus of Mr. Carnegie's gifts. In that time there was great progress, and in these later years there has been greater progress. Some features Of these earlier buildings have been developed into greater usefulness and beauty, while others have not had so happy an experience, but have done their part in the evolution of the present library building, as early experiments to be discarded in favor Of better methods. This is the story Of all good development, and the text and illustrations Of the present volume should be studied with careful discrimination as to what should be avoided and what copied or developed. In the past few years the Carnegie Corporation has worked out improved standards, especially for small library buildings, which represent a happy combination of good architecture and practical administration. It is perhaps not out Of place here to emphasize the thought that a Carnegie library, while attractive in exterior, should be fundamentally of sound architecture, answering to practical needs and economy Of maintenance. Today the Carnegie name is associated with good architecture in thousands of places in this country and elsewhere, thus providing a monument more impressive, more useful, and more lasting than can be associated with any other life or name.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh: A Bit of History With Some Pictures I think that Pittsburgh requires a Central Building, containing a Reference and Circulating Library, also, suitable accommodations for works of art, which I believe its citizens would soon provide; that there should also be added rooms for the meetings of the various learned societies of the city. The experience of New York, Baltimore, and other large cities has proved that a Central Library should be supple mented by branch Libraries. The Free Circulating Library of New York has now four of these; the city of Baltimore has five; they are not extensive structures, but each contains a small supply of the books most in demand, and a reading room, and is Operated in connection with the Central Library. Such branches, I think, should be established in the various districts Of the city, probably one in Birmingham, another in Temperanceville, another in East Liberty, a fourth in Lawrenceville, perhaps a fifth in the older part of the city. All of these should be thoroughly fire-proof, monumental in character and creditable to' the city. To provide these buildings with suitable appliances I offer to ex pend not less than one million dollars. I propose that their location, erection and management shall be entrusted to a Board of Trustees, composed, ex-officio of the Mayor, the Presidents of Select and Com mon Councils, the President of the Central Board of Education, and a Library Committee of five appointed by the Councils, such as you have done me the honor to appoint to confer with me; to these I should add the names of twelve well-known citizens of Allegheny County, who should have power as a body to provide for the re-election of its mem bers at stated times, and also, to fill vacancies in their number. The Libraries to be formally handed over to the city upon their completion, free from lien, in trust, for the purposes specified. The city to agree to receive and support same at its own proper cost, under the management of the Trustees as above provided.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classified Catalogue of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, 1895-1902, Vol. 1 of 3: General Works, Philosophy, Religion, Sociology, Philology, Natural Science, Useful Arts The Board Of Trustees of the Carnegie Library of Pitts burgh was organized in 1890. The following year permission was Obtained from the city to erect in Schenley Park a central building dedicated to its purposes, to be followed by the erection of branches in other parts of the city. AS this first structure approached completion, the work Of the Library proper began early in 1895 with the organization of a staff under the leadership of Edwin H.' Anderson and in November of that year the Library was opened to the public with a col lection of about volumes. A dictionary catalogue listing about volumes of the collection had been prepared in pamphlet form and was ready for distribution at the formal opening of the Library to the public. A second impression of this, with slight corrections, was quickly supplied. Since that time no catalogue in book form, attempting to cover the whole of the Library's collec tions, has been issued. A decision was soon reached, how ever, to issue regular monthly bulletins of additions to the Library and these began to appear in April 1896. The next year a department of printing was created and not only the Monthly Bulletin but also the cards for the regular card catalogues of the Library, including those of the branches as established, were issued in printed form. The composition was by linotype and the metal was preserved in the form of type so that lists and catalogues of various kinds might be printed from time to time without incurring the cost of te setting the matter. These type-forms have been used in the making Of a number Of such lists. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
