"In downtown Manhattan, surrounded by shining glass and steel skyscrapers, is the main research facility of the New York Public Library, a magnificent stone building "guarded" by two sculpted lions. It is considered the crowning achievement of the Beaux-Arts architectural firm Carrère and Hasting, and was the building that propelled them to the forefront of their profession. The impetus for a new public library in New York was generated through a sizable bequest in 1886 by Samuel Jones Tilden, a leading Democratic political figure. There were already two libraries, the Astor Library and the Lenox Library, in New York, but it was decided to combine these with the new proposals and to create a private foundation, which was established in 1895. In 1901 the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie donated a further sum of money for branch libraries, but insisted that the City of New York be responsible for the maintenance of the buildings, making them a combination of private funding and state administration. Carrère and Hasting won the competition for the new library in 1897 and the main building opened on May 24, 1911. The central reading room in the library is a cavernous 78 feet (23 m) wide and 297 feet (90 m) long, with a balcony level to provide more shelf space for the thousands of reference books. Significantly, during the Great Depression of the 1930s, the library became a place where people who had lost their jobs were able to study for higher qualifications that they then used when the economy started to turn. It was also during the Depression that the magnificent stone lions flanking the entrance were coined Patience (to the south) and Fortitude (to the north). Today the New York Public Library is one of the most important libraries in the world, and many of its works can be accessed online. It is also a fundamental part of the city's early-twentieth-century history."
