Description

Photograph of an exterior view of a public library with young palm trees in Woodland, 1900-1940. At center a two-story stone building is visible with multiple stairs leading under a columned entryway. "Public Library" is etched into the stone above the entryway, while an ornate design is carved above the writing. Four large arched windows are visible on the front face, while two are visible on the left side. The roof is tiled, while five young palm trees are planted in the front lawn. A sidewalk runs across the foreground and curves to lead to the front entrance. Trees are visible in the background.
