Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the New Public Library in Boston The new building of the Boston Public Library, the pioneer in the United States of free libraries supported by general taxation, and the most important of all American libraries, may well be called the most beautiful library structure in the world, as it certainly is one of the noblest public buildings in this country. It occupies the central and most conspicuous position in Copley Square. Facing upon Dartmouth Street, the Library extends back along Boylston Street and Blagden Street on either side, its rear wall overlooking the yard of the Harvard Medical School. It is surrounded by some of the most notable buildings in Boston, including, besides the Medical School, Trinity Church, the masterpiece of the late H. H. Richardson, the best known of American architects; the Museum of Fine Arts, next to the Metropolitan Museum, in New York, the best in the country; and, across Boylston Street from the Library, the Old South Church, the home of the society whose former home, the Old South Meeting-House in Washington Street, is a landmark of American history. The Library was founded in 1852. Its growth and development were rapid and sure, and in 1880 the old building in Boylston Street, opposite the Common, contained more than three hundred thousand volumes. It was in constant danger from fire, and it was impossible much further to extend its accommodations. The Commonwealth, therefore, with great liberality, granted a piece of land for a new building, and this land, together with an additional purchase by the city, forms the present site.
