Scope and content
ca. 1952. Much effort was put forth by employees of the Tacoma Public Library to get the new Main Library ready for service in 1952. Books and other materials were being moved from the old Carnegie building to the new facility. Pictured above are librarian Elfriede Gudelius and three unidentified staff members who are placing items on metal shelving in the basement. Older newspapers, magazines and reference materials were kept there for retrieval by staff for inquiring patrons.
