The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries saw dramatic change in concepts about lifelong learning and public access to information. A rising professionalism among educators, architects, and librarians created competing philosophies regarding architectural form and function. However, all reached the consensus that learning environments which inspire excitement among teachers and students reflect communities that support the educational mission.Architectual and educational historians will welcome this well-researched and richly illustrated study. Libraries and historical societies will also find valuable the county-by-county listing of educational properties on the National Register and the timeline of educational highlights.
