#TBT to a view of the reading room at one of our former location at Locust and Juniper Streets. This one of those library rooms that Belle would fall in love with Beast over. #justsayin
Opening on February 24, 1880, this building was the first of Library Company to cater to women in addition to men, which included the installment of a ladies’ sitting room and the Library Company’s first woman librarian. Today the staff is predominantly women.
