Description
An account of the resource
<p>Built alongside the Dobbie Hall in 1904 and designed by the same architects, A & W Black, the former library building reflects the hall’s rich façade. It is one of 2509 libraries around the world built between 1883 and 1929 with money donated by the Scottish-American businessman and philanthropist, Andrew Carnegie.</p><p>The entrance hall has a plain mosaic floor with scrolled border. To its left, lighted by the Italianate window, is the panelled reading room. The main area of the library, where the book shelves stood, is now used as a store by the Larbert Operatic Society and the local dance group. The librarian’s howff is a hairdresser’s.</p>
