cathedral-type nave Explanation: Here's an architectural description that refers to the "cathedral type" from: https://www.newberry.org/sites/default/files/researchguide-a... "There were three types of libraries prevalent at the time. The “cathedral” type, named for its resemblance to the Gothic cathedral with its nave and aisles, dominated early library design. It was basically a single tall reading room, the “nave”, walled in by tiered stacks with balconies on the “aisles”. As the type became larger it was more properly termed the “central court” type, in which the narrow “cathedral” nave with its wooden roof gave way to broader wells topped with metal and glass skylights." |
