- Structure Modern and Conven-
lent .in Every Appointment
v and Detail.
, . '
' . ' - By Mary Frances Isam,
? Librarian Library Association.
' , of Portland.
J Portland's new library will be ready
, for occupancy soon after the first of
' September. 'Plana for the moving; are
', , already far advanced, as visitors to the
-t yresenl Building know only too well.
Plts of pine boxes constructed to con
jtaln one- shelf of books and no more,
4 ornament the porch; the quiet of the
i reterciice room alcoves is disturbed by
n the low murmur of the voices taking
', . Inventory of stock as the books are
? ellppped Into place; janitors may be
net upon the stairs, or in the halls,
v laden with the packed boxes transport
- 'Ina; them to the constantly increasing
pile in the basement. Or carrying down
chairs or tables; or catalogue cases for
tho reflnlshtng necessary befora placing
Sv them in the new building.
For months the basement has been
i filled to overflowing, so that progress
s through it has been serpentine,- but
' further shifting and more scientific
- packing produced a room which has
u been turned into a paint shop, and here
- - the process of transforming the old
;Jnt the new goes on daily, ; After
- treatment, the furniture is returned to
1 its place and - more taken, the final
..:-' .polishing to be made after' removal,
'" Through. the courtesy of' the' school
V; ' board, the school' department is estab-
fished in four rooms of the Lownsdale
:' chool for the summer months and
m, there the ; 80,000 volumes comprising
t' ,the classroom libraries of both olty and
county schools are being sorted, mend
? ed and repacked for, the fall dtstrlbu-
tion. , " "w'..,'
' It was impossible to handle these
volumes in the present building, there
in fore, the library appreciates to the fulf
il the generosity or the school board, in
i placing these rooms at its disposal.
I'- '. w Building- Handsome.
' The beauty of the new building can
not be fully appreciated until it is en
- tirely finished. Its noble proportions,
'' its 'Simple but exquisite detail are evl
dent now, but when the setting is com-
, pleted, the turf green, the shrubs in
' blossom, the low stone fence in place,
' which will be relieved at one point by a
4 -fountain and at Jntervals by comforts-
ble atone seats, then It Can truly be
ca that this splendid 'building - ex
presses its purpose. Both within and
" without, its atmosphere of hospitality,
of peace, of repose, . of studious quiet,
of stability, will appeal to every reader
within its walls, and every casual vis
, ttor will come ynder s spell, It la a
fitting: material to house the wisdom of
the ages. , .
Approaching tho building on Tenth
street from the north, this Inscription
taken from the Two Gentlemen of Ver
non catches the eye: ,' .
VKJome, go with us, we'll guide the to
. our house, .
.- And, show thee, the rich, treasures . we
i i have got; .
Which, with ourselves, are all at thy
' dispose."' ,
This invitation voices, the spirit that
animates the modern public library.
- ' Though the scholar and his needs are
not forgotten, he is far from the only
consideration. The public .library
among its "treasures" has something
.- ff or all the people, young and old, rich
.1 - ahd poor, wise and foolish. It has re
wards for the ambitious, it has enter-
talnment for the pleaaure loving. It has
; Inspiration for the young. It has prao-
1 1 leal help for those in need. The public
library of the modern community may
ad be compared to the market place of the
ancient Greeks, for here all men do con
f gregate, and here are they welcome.
f Spacious Pnbllo Boosts.
J As a suggestion of the wealth with-
in. groups of names are placed under-
neath the windows. These comprise the
4 names of men and women who have
written books; scientists, philosophers,
historians, poets, novelists, dramatists;
those who have loved books book col-
lectors; those who have made ' books,
a printers and binders and those who
have inspired books, painters, dlscov-
erers, sculptors, theologians, heroes,
it nd architects. The inclusion of these
specific names will afford endless op-
port unity for pleasant criticism and
discussion. I might say, In passing,
that Eve in the list of book-binders
refers to Nicholas Eve, the royal old
French hinder, and not to our first
mother, aa has been suggested.
Once within the new building, the
present library patrons and they are
O.00O strong will be Impressed with
the spacious public room a, so well lighted
and ventilated. Modern methods mak-j
possible a constant hange of air in
ery room, and every window opens.
The great windows permit a flood of
llRht by day, and by night the soft light
reflected from the ceiling illuminates
.very corner so perfectly and without
MluJows that one is almost persuade 1
that day has no end.
The Jell very room and the reference
department will contain on open shelves
many moueamis or volumes, the hot
anj newest books on every subject. Otic
detail of the book cases will pleaxe. th-i
lowest shelf is 10 inches from the floor.
K.O longer will there be the mad and
dangerous leaping over prostrate forms
in the alcoves, where we are told tna
must aesiraoie volumes are always to
be founJ on the lowest shelf. The book
stacks are placed In the center of the
building and there all hooks in little Je
mend, all duplicates, etc., will be storej
in easy reach of the delivery desk.
JTsW Catalogue Boom,

" will be an expansion of all the present
library work. A new reature will be the
i' prominence given the catalogue. Oi

additions can-now be made to this coir

stranger within our sates, who is not
yet at home with the English tongue.
One Technical Boom.
All books on engineering, mechanics.
electricity fend allied subjects will be
gathered together , from both reference
and circulating departments aqd .placed
in the technical room, a fine room ad
jacent to the reference department and
entered from the public catalogue room.
Scientific and trade Journals and period
icals, ' patent office reports and the
drawings and specifications,, trade cat
alogues and pamphlets, all will be found
in this room. The library is seeking
the services of ah assistant with engin
eering training to take charge of this
department and make it of more prac-,
tlcal importance to the engineers or
Portland, both employers and employed,
than It ever has been before. Outlines
of suggested readings to - supplement
courses of study or lectures will be pre
pared In this roon which will be a help
to young men whose . school days have
been cut short and who are ambitious to
help themselves. A drafting table will
be found of convenience and nearby is
the dark room fitted up with ell 'ma
chinery for developing photographs.
In,' the basement, with entrance on
Yamhill street, msy be found the li
brary hall, a room, large enough to ac
commodate BOO or 600 people. It is
fitted with comfortable fixed seats, a
proper platform, and a stereoptican.
On the first floor at the left of the
lobby is an - unassigned room, also
equipped with stereoptican and suitable
for small lectures. A gas plate in one
corner makes possible a cup of tea.
Some Btud Booms. ,
Tho third floor of the library, with
the exception of the service portion. Is
left "to grow to" and consists of a per
fectly lighted lobty . laYge rooms on the
north and south sides 'and across tho
front of the building five small room
to be. used for study or: committee pur
poses and flanked by good sized rooms
in the southeast and southwest corner.
Many applications for office spaco
have been TecelveJ, but ' the directors
have wisely concluded to grant no per
manent quarters, but to invite freely
meetings of all societies, .clubs and. or
ganizations of civic or educational pur
pose. The Oregon Society of Engineers, the
National Klectrlc Light association, the
City and County Medical society, the
Political Science , club and the Dante
club, and several, other .literary clubs
have' already, signified their intention of
availing themselves of this privilege
The liberal policy of the directors in th
use of the branch auditoriums will be
extended to the central building. Gath
erings of all kinds, except those for th
purpose of direct or indirect self-advert
llsemeiit, will be welcomed, provided no
admission ' fee is charged and no col
lection taken. The lobby and large
rooms of the third floor are especially
adapted for exhibitions. All these rooms
may be secured free of charge by mak
ing arrangements at the librarian's of
fice. .
Here lies the new opportunity for.Ser
vice, to, seize it to the full we must
have the cooperation . of all the-people.
This splendid building has been greeted
by the people for the pleople, and to Jus.
tify its existence, it must be not only the
ffoffse of books, but the civic center, the
educational center, the chosen meeting
place of all the people of Portland and
or Multnomah county. '-,' :";

a decorated marble balustrade follows
up the stairway to the next floor.
: All is rice rroof.
The periodical ' room is In white for

in the; building to take ;are of society
and association meetings of a nature to
which such an auditorium is .specially
