The starfield library is aesthetically designed and spans from the 4th floor to the 7th floor in the middle of the recently opened shopping mall. You can read books, magazines, and use the tablets set up on the 4th floor. Books are displayed on the walls from the 4th to the 7th floor but are out of reach.
Taken at the New South Wales State Library in Sydney.
Getting access to the upper levels of the inner library isn't possible, so this photo was taken through a locked glass door on the second floor. This is a hand held photo taken with an Olympus OMD-M5 and processed in Lightroom 4. The level of detail is pretty amazing given all of the limiting factors and the fact that I didn't use HDR.
"Le Château de Chantilly abrite l’une des plus riches bibliothèques de France. Les trésors accumulés par les différents propriétaires de Chantilly ont été complétés et magnifiés avec passion par le duc d’Aumale, qui fut le plus grand bibliophile de son temps. Le Cabinet des livres aménagé par l’architecte Honoré Daumet à la fin du XIXe siècle forme un écrin pour les manuscrits des princes de Condé et les trésors du duc d’Aumale. Un hommage y est rendu au Grand Condé dont le buste, par Coysevox, attire le regard sur la cheminée, tandis que les armoiries des compagnons d’armes du prince ornent le plafond"

The Bangkok City Library is a public library in Bangkok, Thailand. It is on Ratchadamnoen Klang Road at the Khok Wua Intersection in Phra Nakhon District. It opened in April 2017, four years after Bangkok was named the UNESCO World Book Capital in 2013. I think the building dates from the 1950s originally

The park at the South End Branch of the Boston Public Library.
More mid-Century modern architecture in Boston's South End.
But later, here, with a beautiful example from the Mitchell/Giurgola architectural firm and this design for the (new) South End branch of the Boston Public Library.
Based in Philly in the 1960s, Mitchell/Giurgola and the Philadelphia School "challenged doctrinaire modernism with designs and buildings that conceptually recognized their context. Giurgola completed the BPL’s South End library branch in 1971 as he and the Mitchell/Giurgola Architects firm attracted national and international attention for their work."

After Rhyme -time in the library, time for a couple of bus photos before lunch. First up service 96 to Rugby. I was hoping for favourites 36209/210 of course, but alas, ex 86 branded 36214 appears. Not the shot I wanted either, as an ambulance pulled up where I was originally standing, so this is a compromise, but it works ok enough.
