The Main Reading Room, in the rear, extends nearly the entire length of the building. It has a floor area of half an acre, and is divided in the middle by a booth from which books are delivered. There are seats for 768 readers. Mr. A. C. David, in the article pre- viously quoted from the Architectural Record, says: "The Main Reading Room is one of the most spa- [ 31 ] DOOR OF EXHIBITION ROOM cious rooms in the world — beautifully proportioned, lighted by a series of windows on both the long sid...es of the room, and entirely accessible to the stacks. To have obtained a room of these dimensions, so excel- lently adapted to its purpose in every respect, was a great triumph for the architects. " The shelves along the walls contain a collection of about 25, 000 volumes. These books are not only the usual works of reference, — dictionaries, encyclopaedias, and the like, but they also include a good working li- brary of general literature, — philosophy, religion, sci- ence, history, law, biography, standard novels, poetry, and the drama.
