==Design== Green Library's design was a significant and early departure from the architectural style of Stanford's Main Quad. [[Jane Stanford]] held a design competition for the new library and chose the submission of Joseph MacKay, a San Francisco art glassmaker, which drew more on [[Romanesque architecture|Romanesque]] style than the existing buildings. Several stories tall, this original construction was refurbished in 1999 and now forms the main halls and rotunda of the library.<ref>{{Cite web|last=University|first=Β© Stanford|last2=Stanford|last3=California 94305|title=History of Green Library|url=https://library.stanford.edu/green/visitor-information/history-green-library|access-date=2021-02-17|website=Stanford Libraries|language=en}}</ref>
