This shot and others were taken prior to the library moving to its new location. The children's reading area looking northwest. The door to the outside was a fire escape door. The door in the center led to a stairway which went down to the basement or up to level 4. Because the library lacked space the oversize adult books and the Iowa collection were shelved on the children's side. Additional photographs and resources can be found at the Waverly Public Library on the local and family history page http://www.waverlyia.com/public-library/research/local-and-family-history-collection.aspx Accession No. 97B0008
