Unlike the exterior views and interior photographs on this board, this image is a floor plan of the Ingersoll Memorial Building, one of the Brooklyn Public Library's buildings. Plans like this show how a library divided its space among reading rooms, stacks, the circulation desk, and staff areas, which reveals how the institution expected patrons to move through it. Floor plans from this period are useful to researchers because they record design decisions that photographs often leave out, such as where shelving was placed and how light and access were planned.
