Greater New-York. is so peculiarly situated, geo.
graphically to render The establishment OF
branch offices necessary in any extended business.
The Public Library will probably have branches
in Brooklyn. Long Island City. down town, on the
East and West Sides and in Harlem. When the
negotiations looking to the union Of the Tilden
Trust Fund and Columbia College were under
way the Columbia College people were prepared
to offer a magnificent site for a library building
on Morningside Heights: but the offer not ac-
cepted.
He THINKS IT THE BEST SITE.
The Lenox Library site strikes me as being in
every way best suited for the consolidated IL
brary interests. This block. bounded by Fifth
and Madison ayes. and Seventeen and Seventy
first sts Is just about the right size and situation
for the Public Library. The new building which
propose 10 put up must be ample. not only Tor
the present number of volumes we have in hand.
but should have ample accommodation for 5,opI-
000 volumes. which we hope to have In course Of
tire Americans. you know. must have the best
of everything on earth. and we certainly VIII not
be satisfied until We have the best library in the
world. Not only is il our desire t. have ample ac-
commOdation for books and rooms for SCIENTISTS
but ought to have good lecture halls reading
rooms, ETC.
The proposed Public Library will b. open on
SUNDAYS well as on weekdays. with the eNcep-
ton OF those departments when EaNc been Gre
ated and endowed with the stipulation that th'y
