Abstract

The greatest impetus to public library construction, since Andrew Carnegie stopped giving money for buildings shortly after the turn of this century has been the construction amendment to the Library Services and Construction Act of 1964. Since then, twenty-five projects, including new buildings, additions to buildings, and remodeling to convert unused space in public library buildings, have been approved by the North Carolina State Library.
