Framed Print of The Grosvenor Gallery Library, New Bond-Street, 1881. Creator: Unknown
The Grosvenor Gallery Library, New Bond-Street, [London], 1881. 1. Circulating Library. 2. Large Reading-Room. 3. Large Dining and Luncheon Room. 4. Reference Library and Reading-Room...the directors...have sought to combine with the...conveniences of a circulating library advantages that have hitherto been almost exclusively associated with the idea of a club. In this class...[are] the reading and writing rooms, the ladies drawing-room, and smoking-rooms...while in the reference library, subscribers, now numbered by thousands, enjoy access to sources of information such as the ordinary club library rarely professes to supply...There is also a smaller smoking-room upstairs, so that the lovers of the weed have no cause to complain...the circulating library (fig. 1)...is already fully stocked with a comprehensive collection of modern and other selected works in every department of literature. To this must be added a Foreign Library, comprising French and German works...and, a further much-needed boon, a library of vocal and instrumental music...the two reading-rooms [look] on to the street - one, the larger (fig. 2), [is] devoted to both sexes in common; and the other, cosier, but ample for the requirements, reserved for ladies alone'.
