Tall vertical pilasters run up the brick face of this library, and the building sits back across an open lawn that sets it apart from the street. Pilasters are flat, column-like projections on a wall, a classical detail that many American public buildings adopted in the decades around 1900, when Carnegie-funded libraries were rising in towns across the country. A lawn in front was often part of that plan, presenting the library as a dignified civic place. The record does not name the building, so its location and date are not stated here.
