This image shows three women behind the librarian's desk at the Carnegie library. At the center is Nellie Griswold Beatty, head librarian from 1902-1917.  On either side are her assistants, probably Virginia Edwards and Claudia Pendleton. Behind them is the grandfather clock gifted to the library by Mrs. Charles Robinson with bookshelves to either side.  On the right of the background, the library's card catalog drawer is visible.
