Have you ever considered creating a library in your home? If the answer is yes, then the short book "Library Rooms and Buildings" by byCharles C. Soule will be of great interest. Soule writes to explain all the basics on building and stocking a library. His advice is appropriate for everyone, whether you are planning to convert one room to a library in your home, or you are building a community library for many people to enjoy. "Library Rooms and Buildings" begins with the basics: how to estimate the number of bookshelves you will need and how high and deep they should be. For libraries that will grow beyond one room, Soule advises dividing the spaces in the most economical way possible, since typically libraries only employ one person per room. He suggests keeping books away from direct sunlight and out of the elements. Soule has advice for towns planning new libraries. He estimates that a small wooden building could be built at the time for around $2,500. Times may have changed, but Soule's larger point was that every community should plan for a library, no matter how small. It is clear that Soule believed that a library was essential to foster a sense of camaraderie and a spirit of learning among neighbors. Soule explains how town libraries can be funded and what the basic requirements are for stocking shelves and staffing. Although it would have been interesting to read Soule's recommendations on selecting books, book selection is beyond the scope of this 24-page booklet. It is still a valuable resource on the mechanics of building a proper library. "Library Rooms and Buildings" deserves a place on the shelves of every bibliophile.

Excerpt from An Index to the Pictures and Plans of Library Buildings: To Be Found in the Boston Public Library At the time when plans for a new building for the Boston Public Library were under consideration a collection was made by the Library of pictures and plans, so far as they were obtainable, while all such material in periodicals in the Library was indexed. The result was embodied in the first edition of the present list, printed in the Quarterly Bulletin for January, 1886, and May, 1888, and republished in the Library Journal, October, 1886, and September, 1888. The compiler, Mr. L. Whitney, of the Library staff, has continued the work of collecting up to the present time. Additional information was obtained through blank forms sent out by Mr. Putnam, recently Librarian, to such libraries as have erected new buildings.

Excerpt from Ode of Dedication on the Completion of the Library Building In long procession still, it comes and comes, Farther than eye can reach, from sun to sun; The great First-born of Earth, the Heirs of Time, Heaven's own Elect of every age and clime; Her kings and priests, crowned and white-mantled all The kings of thought, the priests of progress they, The seers, the sages. Mightiest in their day, Who highest bore the torch in darkest thrall. - Nor tongue, nor epoch narrows down the Space, The sons of genius live, for all the human race. A rare and choice procession this I ween, Nor once in Rome, nor yet in Corinth seen; No golden eagles, gloating o'er their prey In cruel triumph for a bloody day.

Excerpt from The Boston Public Library: A Handbook to the Library Building, Its Mural Decorations and Its Collections On the pedestals are carved the names of the worlds most eminent scientists and artists. The head of Minerva on the keystone of the central entrance arch is the work of Augustus St. Gaudens and Domingo Mora. Above, under the great central windows, are three carved seals upon backgrounds of foliage, all of them sculptured by St. Gaudens; from left to right, the seals are those of the Commonwealth, of the Library, and of the City of Boston. The seal of the Library has two nude boys, bearing great torches, as supporters; the Latin motto above signifies "The Light of all Citizens." The thirty-three granite medallions in the spandrels of the window arches on the three facades contain the picturesque marks or trade devices of early printers, carved by Mr. Mora. The Vestibule. The vestibule is of unpolished Tennessee marble; in a niche at the left is a heroic bronze statue of Sir Harry Vane, Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1636, the work of Frederick MacMonnies. The building is entered from the vestibule through three noble doorways, copied from the entrance of the Erechtheum at Athens; the double bronze doors which they enclose were designed by Daniel Chester French. Each door contains a graceful allegorical figure, in low relief; above are garlands, enclosing the names of the figures; below each figure is an appropriate quotation. On the left-hand doors are the figures of Music and Poetry; on those in the centre. Knowledge and Wisdom; on the right-hand doors. Truth and Romance.
