Title: Library in Old North, Georgetown University
Author: Unknown
Description: Until 1891 and the opening of Riggs Library, the University’s library was in Old North. A visitor in the 1880s described the Old North library as “a spot of darkness and dust – a tangled garden where one came upon a treasure unexpectedly among clumps of weeds and enjoyed it all the more.”
