M., Harvard Library Embodying the ideal of beauty and utility, the attractive new library ranks among the best school libraries in the United States. The building is beautifully designed in the Romanesque style of architecture to har- monize with the main building. It was constructed by the best of work- men during the year 1927-1928 and was open for use on June 5, 1928. Dr. James I. Wyer, Director of New York State Library, formerly Director of New York State Library School, dedicated the building on that day. To Bellingham Normal School, this day was one of its milestones, mark- ing the realization of a great dream of her students and faculty. A spacious reading room covers almost the entire second floor, seat- ing some 300 students. Here twenty thousand volumes are on open shelves, accessible to students at all times. The coverings on the books have been selected in such a way that, on entering the room, one does not seem to see the books but perceives a room hung with ancient tapestries, blending beautifully with the walls and ceiling.
