This photograph shows the History Library at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) International Association Building in New York City around 1908. Notice in the back on the left side of the picture, two men sit discussing some documents that lie on the table. At least five bookshelves can be seen, standing one next to the other. There are also some tables and chairs to accommodate researchers and people who came to the library to read.
