Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1980. / MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH. / Throughout the course of my architectural education, I have become increasingly committed to the idea of reinforcing the existing fabric of our towns and cities, and intrigued with the need to sometimes redefine the existing architecture within those cities. This thesis concerns itself with the design of a library on a site In Milford, Massachusetts. The site is defined by three proximate, albeit dissimilar buildings, one of which is the original and still operating Milford Public library. This thesis attempts to resolve the urban issues implied by the existing town context, the architectural issues implied by the three buildings on the site, and the programmatic needs of a contemporary library. / by Kate Dundes. / M.Arch.

This thesis is principally concerned with providing an inventory and analysis of public libraries in the state Carnegie. Among those states receiving Carnegie grants for library buildings, Indiana ranks first, both in funds and -the number of buildings constructed. Beginning in 1901 when newly enacted state tax laws permitted greater autonomy for municipal library boards and ending in 1917 with the entry of the United States into World War 1, the public movement in Indiana rapidly advanced. This can be seen as the direct result of Carnegie's philanthropic efforts. It is the intent of this paper to outline those activities and show the extent of his library program in Indiana.In addition, this thesis will provide an overview of architectural aspects of the libraries as shown in the buildings themselves. It will discuss the architecture of the libraries and the stylistic differences among them.. Finally a catalog is to be included, illustrating each of the buildings constructed through Carnegie's benefactions. / Department of Architecture
