Description: | Undated,
The interior of the Lending Library at Hunslet. On the left is the library entrance and counters with a small door to the right seen behind the card index. Bookshelves run along the walls containing both fiction and non-fiction. The non fiction books are organised by subject with the category written above the shelves. Subjects in this view include Philosophy, Religion, Natural Science and Useful Arts. On the back walls are two small displays, 'Adventures for the Armchair Traveller' and 'As Salt As The Sea'. The 'As Salt As The Sea' display was in conjunction with a leaflet listing recommended nautical stories available in the Lending Library. Titles included 'Frozen Pirate' by W.C. Russell, '20,000 Leagues Under The Sea', by J. Verne and 'Captains Courageous' by R. Kipling. The entrance to the Study Library can also be seen along this back wall. Tables with a central display unit can be seen in the foreground. A table has also been built around a pillar in the centre of the view where books about 'Landmarks In The Sands of Time' and 'Pivotal Figures of History' can be seen. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Lending Library Hunslet Branch Library | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
