| Description |
English: In 1910, the Seattle Public Library opened the first of its branch libraries. These were built with money donated by Andrew Carnegie, the Philadelphia industrialist. One was the University Branch, on Roosevelt Way NE at 50th Street. Like most of the branches, it had a children's librarian.
In this photo, a librarian at the Seattle Public Library's University Branch helps a girl find something to read. Any child who could read and take care of a book was allowed to check things out from the public library.
