Handbook of the New York Public Library
The 'Handbook of the New York Public Library' was published in 1916 and serves as a comprehensive reference guide to the Central Building and its services. It details the library's architectural features, historical origins, and organizational structure, providing insights into its layout and specialized divisions, including resources for the blind. The handbook also chronicles the library's consolidation from earlier institutions like the Astor and Lenox libraries and highlights the contributions of benefactors such as Andrew Carnegie. This work is notable for its historical perspective on one of New York City's key cultural landmarks.
