It stands on a part of the site of the old Croton distributing reservoir and was built by the City of New York, at a cost of about $9,000,000, for occupation by The New York Public Library. The act providing for its erection was passed by the Legislature 19 May 1897, Carrere and Hastings were ap- pointed architects on 9 December following, the cornerstone was laid on 10 November 1902, the building was opened to the public on 23 May 1911. The building is in form of a rectangle, 390 feet long and 270 feet deep, built around two inner courts each about 80 feet square; it has a cellar, basement, and three upper floors. The area covered is about 115,000 square feet, the cubic contents 10,380,000 cubic feet. The ma- terial is largely Vermont marble (375,000 cubic feet), bonded in brick walls. There are seats for 768 readers in the main reading room, and seats in other public rooms bring the total capacity up to 1,760. In the main stack room are 334,530 feet (63.3 miles) of shelving, with capacity for about 2,500,000 volumes. Book stacks in the special reading rooms amount to about 70,000 feet, with capacity for about 500,000 volumes. As the building is large, and the dis- tances between rooms are great, the reader or visitor may save some useless steps if he will read and follow the appended state- ment of the functions of the various rooms and departments. The main reading room is on the third (top) floor of the building, on the west or Bryant Park side. It is reached by stairs leading from the Fifth avenue entrance or, more easily, by the elevators in the hall to the left of the Forty-second street entrance on the street level. Subject to a few simple regulations, any well-behaved, unobjection- able person may have brought to him, for consultation within this room, practically any book in the building. For detailed in- vestigation special reading rooms are pro- vided in various parts of the building, as noted below, where a reader may have di- rect access to the books there shelved. A visitor who wishes a definition, direc- tion, or similar brief summary will probably find it most convenient to use the few ref- erence books in the circulation room (80) opposite the Forty-second street entrance. If these fail he will have to go to the main reading room. A visitor who wishes to spend an hour in casual or aimless brows- ing may do so in the circulation room (80), or among the books on open shelves in the main reading room, or among the current periodicals in the room at the southeast corner of the first floor (111). With a few exceptions, as set forth in detail below, the reading rooms are open from 9 a. m. to 10 p. m. on week days, 1 to 10 p. m. on Sundays. Books from the special reading rooms are available for consultation in the main reading room when the smaller rooms are closed.

THIRD FLOOR REACHED BY FIFTH AVENUE OR FORTY-SECOND STREET STAIRS OR BY ELEVATORS PUBLIC CATALOGUE ROOM (315) AND MAIN READING ROOM, entrance at head of stairs on Fifth avenue corridor. At the information desk in the centre of the public catalogue room is the Information Li- brarian. He and his assistants are there to help readers who need or ask for help. Here is the general card catalogue of the Library. The cards in the drawers along the west, north, and east sides of the room, to the right as one enters, record by author and sub- ject (in some cases, by title) all books avail- able for consultation in the building; the ar- rangement is in one alphabet. Letters on the upper right hand corner of the cards indicate where the books are located. The reader should decide which author he is looking for or which subject he wishes to ex- amine; take to a consulting table the tray con- taining the cards relating to this author or subject; there copy, on application slips pro- vided for the purpose, the name of the author, the title and date of publication of the book, and the class or shelf mark, (i. e., the letters on 14 the upper right hand corner) as indicated on the catalogue card, using one slip for each separate work. He should then return the tray to its proper place and hand in his slip or slips at the pneu- matic tubes in the information desk in the middle of the room. The attendant will give him in exchange for the slips a card bearing a number. The reader should then take this card into the main reading room, through the door oppo- site the entrance, going into the north room, to the right, if his card number is odd, into the south room, to the left, if the number is even. In the main reading room, the reader should wait in front of the indicator over the delivery desk until this indicator shows the same number as the one on his card. This means that his books are ready for him; they will be delivered on surrender of his indicator card. He may then take them to any un- occupied seat in the room. When he has finished with them he should return them to the east end of the delivery desk, and tell the attendant his name. If the reader chooses to go first into the main reading room, select a seat, return to the public catalogue room and write that seat num- ber on his application slip, he may then file his slip and go directly to the seat he has chosen, without waiting before the indicator. As soon as his books are received by the desk attendants they will be delivered at his seat, if he is there to receive them. If the reader has drawn some books and needs others he should return to the public cat- alogue room, fill out the necessary slips, and hand them in as before; this time, however, he should put on his slips the number of the seat 16 at which he has been working in the main read-' ing room. He now receives no numbered wait- ing card, for his books will be delivered to him at the seat noted on his application slip, if he is there to receive them. On the west side of the public catalogue room, to the left of the door into the main reading room are sets of the printed catalogues of the British Museum library and the Biblio- theque Nationale of Paris, with a selection of ready reference books. On the south side are filed catalogue cards of the Library of Con- gress at Washington and a set of cards record- ing by authors the books available for with- drawal for home use from the circulation room (80) and the children's room (78) on the basement floor. Along the walls of the main reading room are shelved about 25,000 volumes that may be read without the formality of signing applica- tion blanks. These works may be taken to the tables or may be consulted on the lecturns at the end of each reading table; they should be returned promptly to their places when through with. Modern general atlases are shelved in stands near the delivery desk. Large maps may be consulted on the rolls at the north and south ends of this room. For extended study of maps and atlases the reader should go to the map room (304) on this floor, along the Forti- eth street corridor. The public catalogue room and the main reading room are open from 9 a. m. to 10 p. m. on week days (including all holidays'), 1 to 10 p. m. on Sundays.

Closed on Sundays. ART AND ARCHITECTURE ROOM (313), along Fifth avenue corridor, to the south.
