THE PUBLIC LIBRARY
in Copley Square is one of the world's largest.
Students, literati and others throng its rooms
and corridors to read and study, to see the
magnificent murals, the art exhibitions and the
statues and to hear the public lectures. It con-
tains about one and three-quarters million vol-
umes and has 34 branches in different parts of
the city. This statue of Phillips Brooks, promi-
nent churchman of the nineteenth century
stands at the side of Trinity Church.
