Langside Library in Glasgow.

Designed by George Simpson in the Edwardian Baroque Style, it opened in 1915, making it the last of the Carnegie Libraries in Glasgow.

It was also the first library in the city specifically designed to be open access, meaning people were free to browse the shelves rather than having to request specific books at a counter.
