Here’s the
original plan for the first floor. As
you walk in through the west entrance, you pass pillars towards the delivery
desk. Past the delivery desk is a
closed stack area that extends to the roof of the building and is lit by the
huge eastern-facing bay window. Off to
right are the science reading rooms; to the left are the technical processing
rooms, the catalog, and the dean’s office.
Interestingly, I think the dean’s office is the only thing that
remains constant throughout the history of this building. Anyway, you can see the delivery court on
the northwest corner of the building and opposite there is an outdoor reading
court.
