  • Exceedingly Beautiful and Appropriate: the Library in Yosemite’S Leconte Lodge
    Exceedingly Beautiful and Appropriate: the Library in Yosemite’s LeConte Lodge Maryann Hight California State University, Stanislaus April 10, 2012 “An unusually rainy season made the blazing fireplace welcome, and many lingered to get a better acquaintance with the Library.” (Report of the LeConte Memorial Committee, Sierra Club Bulletin, 1913) The cozy scene described above evokes a traditional and sentimental image of libraries. Perusal of today’s library literature, technical literature and newspapers leads us to believe libraries are doomed because people are no longer interested in reading print books. But the library mentioned in the passage above still exists at the LeConte Memorial Lodge in Yosemite National Park. For 108 years, the tiny library has been informing and delighting visitors to the Yosemite Valley. The massive stone fireplace now has a small pellet stove installed to provide warmth in late spring when there is still snow in the valley and electricity and new light fixtures have been added, but the building remains much the same as it was when it was built in 1903. The lodge was built as a memorial to Dr. Joseph LeConte, a respected scientist and one of the founders of the Sierra Club. LeConte died of a heart attack in the Yosemite Valley in July of 1901 while preparing for the first formal Sierra Club outing, a hike to Tuolumne Meadows. Following his death friends and colleagues raised the money to build the lodge in commemoration of his life and career. William E. Colby, who was the secretary and treasurer of the Sierra Club’s LeConte Memorial Committee, reported in the 1904/1905 Sierra Club Bulletin that the club “was now in the possession of an exceedingly beautiful and appropriate structure,” with a huge granite fireplace, bookcases, and window seats.
