Summary

Description
English: York road library York road library has been closed for other 20 years and was designed in an adaptation of the Renaissance style to express the purpose for which the building will be used (first dominant form of English Renaissance was Literature). The building is faced with Accrington pressed red bricks, Morley stone dressings and a tower with an ornamental cupola surmounts the Juvenile entrance. An electric fan by which the air in the Reading Rooms could be changed several times an hour. All floors were of fireproof construction and finished with maple blocks. A Mosaic containing the design of the Leeds City Arms was inset into the paved entrances. The whole of the furniture and fittings were in oak. To see inside the very sorry state of the interior in 2007 see here http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=265602590&blogID=328798330
