Book Description
Late in his life, the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie began to donate millions of dollars to fund literally thousands of libraries around the United States and other parts of the English speaking world. Many of the libraries are still in use across the country, some still as libraries and others serving as cultural and neighborhood centers. This first site is the product of Lucy Kortum and Pat and Bernie Skehan, all of whom share a great fondness and interest in the Carnegie library buildings contained within California. On the site, visitors will find information about all of the extant and demolished Carnegie libraries, including historical photographs and a brief discussion about each building's history. This archive of libraries is also searchable by city, area, region, style of architecture, and by current use. An extended essay by Abigal A. Van Slyck located here discusses the innovative nature of the Carnegie library layout and general design.
