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

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

by

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.

September 1984

Supervisor: Miss D. Dixon, B. A., M.Phil. Leicester, Dip. Lib. London, A.L.A. Department of Library and Information Studies

@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
