THE LIBRARY BUILDING

THE LIBRARY BUILDING.
especially in the climate Of Philadelphia,
would make the interior of the building IN
summer too hot for occupation. This objec-
tin is overcome by the use Of glass diffusers.
The library will be constructed so Us to
be especially adapted to the three neces
sites Of a library-the storing, the
catal guing and recording and the dis
tribution Of books. The space will be SO
arranged that those who desire to con-
suit books in silence may have an oppor-
tunity to do so. These are of different classes
Some only occupy few minutes; others, pro-
fessional bookmakers, use the library for
weeks or months or even years. Then there
are parties of students who come for instruc-
ton and consultation. The University library
will he arranged for thrse different classes
There is a conversation" room with access
to the distribution desk, in which such work
as requires speech may go on without dis
turbing readers. The reading room is di-
