After carefully selecting the places in which there have been built in recent years either library or museum buildings, or both, that in our opinion would be likely to furnish us with the desired information, we examined such structures at Dayton, Springfield, Cleveland, and Toledo, Ohio; Allegheny, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and wilkes-barre, Penn.; Washington, D. (j.; Balti more, Md.; New York, Brooklyn, Albany, and Buffalo, N. Y.; Newark, N. J New Haven, Conn.; Boston, Worcester, Cambridge, Woburn, Quincy, Newton, and Watertown, Mass; Detroit, Ann Arbor, Lansing, and Muskegon, Mich. The result of our obser vations in each place we submit herewith in a separate report by each of us, relating to the kind of buildings within the domain of each.
