Visiting my friend Daniel's house has always fascinated me. Pretty much every wall of every room features shelves like this crammed full of books. I'd love to have the time to spare to cat + class all that!

After converting the old library/office into a family/game room, the new library now resides at one end of the great room, with the study just around the corner.

The Great Hall of the Library of Congress - Thomas Jefferson Building.
The Library of Congress is the de facto national library of the United States and the research arm of the United States Congress. Located in three buildings in Washington, D.C., it is the largest library in the world by shelf space and holds the largest number of books.[2][3] The head of the Library is the Librarian of Congress, currently James H. Billington.
The Library of Congress was established by Congress in 1800 with a budget of $5,000, and was housed in the United States Capitol for most of the 19th century. After much of the original collection had been destroyed during the War of 1812, Thomas Jefferson sold the library 6487 books, his entire personal library, in 1815 [4][5]. After a period of decline during the mid-19th century the Library of Congress began to grow rapidly in both size and importance after the American Civil War, culminating in the construction of a separate library building and the transference of all copyright deposit holdings to the Library. During the rapid expansion of the 20th century the Library of Congress assumed a preeminent public role, becoming a "library of last resort" and expanding its mission for the benefit of scholars and the American people.
First of Four Little Free Libraries that I found on this morning's drive around a few back country roads.

The public library at CS Lewis Square, on the Newtownards Road, in East Belfast.
Photographed with the Nikon FM3a on Ilford HP5, ISO400 film and developed in Fotospeed FD10.
Here is my library which also currently houses the Hello Kitty items that came in Package 3 from Singapore. The books here are mostly to give you the reader an idea of just how much HK was in package 3. Pretty soon, this will be a Hello Kitty room with books instead of the library with some Hello Kitty items ^_^;;;
Second floor at Bergen public library.
This was one of my test shot getting to know my new lens yesterday.
Pretty okey when one of your first shot with a new lens get explored, must be good luck!

Twin red carpets mirror the symmetry of the neo-Gothic design of the John Raylands library
The John Rylands Library is a late-Victorian neo-Gothic building on Deansgate in Manchester, England. The library, which opened to the public in 1900, was founded by Enriqueta Augustina Rylands in memory of her husband, John Rylands.
The book collections, believed to be among the largest in the United Kingdom, include medieval illuminated manuscripts and examples of early European printing, including a Gutenberg Bible, the second largest collection of printing by William Caxton and the most extensive collection of the editions of the Aldine Press of Venice. The Rylands Library Papyrus P52 is believed to be the earliest extant New Testament text.
The architectural style is primarily neo-Gothic with elements of Arts and Crafts Movement in the ornate and imposing gatehouse facing Deansgate which dominates the surrounding streetscape. The library, granted Grade I listed status in 1994, is maintained by the University of Manchester and open for library readers and visitors.
This is my school's library during a foggy night.
