History of LAPL…

 

Usually I bring you a history of Highland Park article but today I’m going to let you look at an article about the Los Angeles Public Library.  The article is titled Biggest Lender in the West and briefly described with “9,000,000 Books a Year: A Report to the People of Los Angeles on their Public Library.”  It was put together in 1955 and provides a snapshot of current and projected library use and uses.  Most interestingly it is filled with absolutely charming graphic images.  I’d say take a look at it if only to admire these drawings.
