Patrick F. Taylor Library The Patrick F. Taylor Library, designed by the renowned Henry Hobson Richardson, opened on Mardi Gras day in 1889. Then called the Howard Memorial Library, it served as a reference library with a focus on Louisiana. With a rotunda adorned with hand-carved “Hounds of Knowledge” and a wide-open stacks area featuring vaulted ceilings, the Library is one of the most beloved and versatile venues in New Orleans.
