Thumbnail for Reading Public Libraries. Central Library, Blagrave Street. The Lending Library, seen from the gallery, c. 1961. At the counter, a library assistant operates the "Recordak" camera, part of the photocharging system. Over at the enquiry desk are Diana Penson and Sylvia Jones. One of the customers wears a "packamac" with a hood - a thin plastic raincoat which can be easily folded and carried. 1960-1969 : photograph by Peter Grugeon
