Freestanding bracket shelving is the subject here, shown as it appeared in a plate from *Basic Information on Library Building Planning*, a planning guide for library construction. The image is a technical drawing rather than a photograph, so its value lies in the details: the uprights, the cantilevered brackets that carry each shelf, and the spacing that determines how many volumes a bay can hold. Publications like this one were used by architects, library boards and building committees who needed practical standards before a single wall went up. The page number, 138, places the illustration within the guide's discussion of stack and shelving design.
