A stone building crowned by a clock tower dominates this sepia view, and the tower gives the structure its most recognizable outline. Sepia toning was common in photographs from the late 1800s into the early 1900s, lending images a warm brown cast that now signals age. Public libraries of that era were often built of stone with a tower or clock, since such buildings were meant to suggest permanence and civic purpose. Its place among the library images points to how these institutions presented learning to their communities.
