Rose Reading Room.
In a moment of total serendipity, I arrived at the library the second it opened (I'd meant to get there earlier, so I'm happy that my ridiculous morning delayed me); I was the first person in the Rose Reading Room!

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.

such a simple thing to do, and as libraries up and down the country close due to cuts, it is a great loss to those who depend on them.
We are going to east London tomorrow to pick up Elsie from school (yippee!) and Peter has cooked a chicken and chorizo lasagne for our family supper there. Back on Tuesday. Will dip in and out, but my IPad is not very flickr friendly, especially as far as groups are concerned.
The herbarium building I work in is old, I call it 'living urbex'. Plans are made to renovate. In the coming months I will try to capture as much as possible of what is there....
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.

Would have liked to have been a bit further back, but was wedged between parked cars.
This covered courtyard is in the Biblioteca Pública Municipal José María Requena in Carmona, Spain. It is a bit distorted as it is a merge of four photos.
