The genealogical, periodical, and law libraries are first rate. The main library collection is broad ranging and with excellent specialties such as map collections and Pennsylvania history. The main library is organized in a fascinating five story atrium with the stacks on balconies surrounding the atrium accessed by narrow stairs or ancient lifts.The circulation and research staff are very helpful....
