We had students test their potions knowledge...they had to smell each ingredient and guess what it was.
The interior of Enrico Taglietti's 'Brutalist' St. Kilda Library (1971-3) in the Melbourne suburb of St. Kilda, Victoria, Australia.
The Library inside Chatsworth Manor House, in Derbyshire, England. Chatsworth House was built by Sir William Cavendish and his wife Bess of Hardwick. They bought the 1,000 acre estate land in 1549 and construction of the house started in 1552. In the 19th century, the Duke of Devonshire acquired the Manor, and made major transformations. One of them was 'the long gallery', originally created by the First Duke, into a library. He was a great lover of books and purchased entire libraries.

Library of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom
More than just a building, the Library of Birmingham (LoB) designed by the Dutch Mecanoo Architects is a People’s Palace, a centre for learning, information and culture that unites people of all ages and backgrounds. The design extends the space of the street indoors. A cantilevered volume not only provides shelter at the entrance, but also serves as a grand balcony with a discovery garden. The circular courtyard cut out of the square is a protected outdoor space that invites daylight deep into the building. Visitors move from one floor to the next through interconnected and overlapping rotundas that provide natural light and ventilation. Ever-changing vistas unfold through the delicate filigree skin of interlocking circles, inspired by the tradition of metalwork in this former industrial city. The prominent golden rooftop rotunda houses the Shakespeare Memorial Room from 1882. Situated between the concrete Repertory Theatre (REP) from 1962 and the listed Baskerville House from 1936, the LoB transforms the largest public square in the heart of the city with three distinct realms for history, culture and entertainment. At 35,000 m², the LoB welcomed over 2.7 million visitors in the first twelve months. New workshops, staff accommodation and a 300-seat auditorium with foyer are shared by both the library and the integrated and renovated REP. The library attained a BREEAM excellent rating.

The since-demolished Highgate Hall pub can just about be seen in the background as Walsall Council's mobile library visits Bentley in January 2007. The vehicle has parked up on Queen Elizabeth Avenue opposite the local shops and close to where Bentley's former static branch library was once located.
Kiama Library was operating in creative mode on Monday 20th January 2014, amongst creepers, slimes, zombies, spiders and skeletons!
Young people aged 8 to 18 years were invited to join the fun at a long awaited Minecraft gaming event.
Kiama Library had upgraded their public computers and there was no better way to showcase improved hardware than a Minecraft Gaming Night.
Pizza and snacks were served on the night. You had to have your own official Minecraft account to play. Our PlayStation 3’s were also set-up on the night if you wanted to have a quick race of Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed.

I’m with @liushansen exploring the Green Square library in Australia. I must admit, I order my books by author rather than colour, but you can’t say this doesn’t look great. How do you guys order the books on your shelves?
