Glasgow: Mitchell Library

Stephen Mitchell, a tobacco manufacturer, donated funds to set up a library. It contains a large public reference library, with over a million volumes, a lending library and hosts a virtual library. The architectural competition for the design took place in 1906 and was won by William B. Whitie; it opened in 1911. It also has a twentieth century extension.
