The trim and columns are of Deer Island granite. The reading room is 48x48 feet, and the historical room is r8x40 feet. There is a lecture room, size 3zx3e, in the basement with seats for about res people. There are also rooms here for ladies and mem. The indirect lighting system and a steam heating plant have been installed. A big, coy looking fireplace of Holland tile is an attraction of the reading room. The vestibule is also of Holland tile.
