Abstract:
Milton Road Library was constructed in 1936-37, at the peak of popularity for public libraries across Britain. It was designed by the Borough Engineer and Surveyor for Cambridge, G. W. Teasdale, in the then prevalent Art Deco style. Although small, its layout reflected many of the prevailing library design ideas of the period. Public space was subdivided by function and class/gender into three principal rooms - the main Lending Library, a Reading Room and a Juvenile Room - access to which was closely supervised. Functional spaces in the form of a staffroom, cloakroom, toilet and storeroom were also provided, along with a small basement that housed a boiler and coal store. Overall, the building represents a good, if somewhat unremarkable, example of its type.
