Entrance to entire building which includes a museum as well as the library	... and to the library	Ann Sindelar (Reference Advisor) delighted us by her offer to tour behind the scenes

One row of the newspaper stacks -- over 5800 newspapers	... and a closeup of the newspapers	It was hard to get one picture to show the vastness of the room, which was just one of 4 floors

There is a large automotive collection. Since Kathryn is interested in the Checker marque, she chose that one for the representative picture - 6 inches of Checker files!	Part of 131 linear ft of non-US family histories	Ann shows one of them

Opening it up to show a chart	The charts are large --	Weyburgh of Clifton Hall

From the stacks there was a wonderful view of the Reading Room	Besides a printed guide, there are several card catalogs of names and subjects, and lots of cross-referencing	Such a great supportive staff. Besides Ann, Connie (surname to come) answered many of our questions, and Kathryn was happy that George Cooper did all the photocopying
