Formally Harrogate Carnegie Library, or formerly Harrogate Carnegie Library? -- Hoary (talk) 10:56, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Original author here of the article here. The intent was "formally", i.e., that it is a more formal name for the establishment that remains in use to this day. PoshCrouton (talk) 18:37, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pevsner et al

Is there anything about this in The Buildings of England? -- Hoary (talk) 11:01, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Katharine Skaife Citation

[edit]

I'm wary of the need for improvement on the citation of Katharine Skaife's 1984 essay "Literary life in Harrogate and Knaresborough". I'm sharing below all I have from her work in the hopes that it helps someone more experienced/knowledgable than I improve the citation where I could not:

Literary life in Harrogate and Knaresborough

Katharine Skaife

A Master's Dissertation, submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the Master of Arts degree of the Loughborough University of Technology.

@PoshCrouton: Thank you: I've put these details into a {{cite thesis}} template.
@Peter I. Vardy and Storye book: Greetings to you both! I wonder if you might be able to help with this new article, recently accepted via the Articles for Creation process: especially in relation to whether the library is described in the North Yorkshire Pevsner, and/or in any other local book sources.

The library is referred to in Pevsner, but not in the North edition, rather in the West Riding edition (Leach and Pevsner), p.312.
I have added a few refs from Malcolm Neesam (local historian) and a little bit from local newspapers. I have also added a little Wikification at the bottom of the article. I am also able to take some new local photographs, including anything in relation to the library, if required. Hope that helps. Storye book (talk) 12:52, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
