We renewed our tickets to Leeds Castle in Kent yesterday after nearly a couple of years and it was nice to go round and get a few shots. This is one of my favourite rooms and is the library.

Olga has the most amazing library ever. Look closely at the Javanese window screen. It's very old. It has bats in it.
Two of my favourite buildings in Chorley, the town hall and the library, the latter used to be a school.

TU Delft - Library
Het markante gebouw van TU Delft Library is een ontwerp van Mecanoo architecten. Eigenlijk is het niet alleen een gebouw, maar ook een landschap.
Symbool voor techniek
Het grasveld wordt aan een punt opgetild en ondersteund door kolommen. De grote hal die zo ontstaat, is voorzien van glazen gevels. De helling wordt doorbroken door een lome trap die naar de entree leidt. Een enorme kegel priemt door het beloopbare grasdak. De kegel staat symbool voor techniek en geeft vorm aan de ronde, introverte leeszalen.
Immense boekenkast
De boeken zijn uitgestald in een immense boekenkast, die zich uitstrekt van de begane grond tot aan het plafond van de vierde verdieping. De plaatsing van boeken, tijdschriften en computers is afgestemd op de baan van het licht.

Turku Main Library is the chief branch of Turku City Library, located in the city centre of Turku, Finland.
The Turku Main Library 2,900 m² old building is a Dutch late Renaissance style building, constructed in 1903, built and delivered by Turku commercial counsellor Fredric von Rettig and designed by Karl August Wrede. The designe was based on a Swedish House of Nobility in Stockholm. The first floor was a national library for the working class and the second was the city library for academics. These two libraries merged in 1912 to become Turku City Library.
This library at the time was the third in Finland. Before there was a library in Turku, the only places to get books from a building was in Helsinki and Rauma.
I went on a tour of the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu with other volunteer guides from the Diving Museum. We were given a very interesting tour. Started off in the library, went to the photographic library and down to the artefacts store and cataloguing centre before being given a tour of the museum. The volunteer guides at the NMM were very helpful and full of facts and interesting stories. Reminds me of some of our diving guides!
I was told they have 24 cubic metres of books and pamphlets with more books being added all the time. A cataloguing nightmare. They have people making inquiries looking for information from all over the world.
"The type of material held is wide and varied and includes approximately 13,000 books, 31,000 workshop manuals and handbooks, 9,000 event programmes, 2,400 auction catalogues together with around 104,850 manufacturers’ sales catalogues and items. Added to this are some 6,900 bound and 81,000 unbound periodicals"

We had students test their potions knowledge...they had to smell each ingredient and guess what it was.
interior view of suite. The living room is semi-open-air space and surrounded by movable louver panels.
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.
It's still a little early for full color but I didn't know that till I made a trip over.. Will try again in a few days...Lord willing and the creek don't rise....

Este edificio es uno de los más caracterÃsticos de Oxford y forma parte de su enorme biblioteca. Oxford, ciudad universitaria por excelencia tiene una de las bibliotecas más antiguas de Europa, llamada Bodleian Library, y que es la segunda en tamaño de Reino Unido después de la British Library. Tiene hasta partes subterráneas y guarda copias de todos los manuscritos que han sido publicados en Reino Unido.
La biblioteca data de la época medieval (siglo XIV), y a esta se le han ido añadiendo edificios conforme iba creciendo, incluyendo las salas subterráneas debido a la falta de espacio. En concreto, este edificio se llama Radcliffe Camera, y fue construÃdo entre 1737 a 1749 para contener la Radcliffe Science Library (Biblioteca de ciencias). Hoy en dÃa contiene salas de lectura. El arquitecto responsable fue James Gibbs y utilizó el estilo paladiano Inglés derivado de los diseños venecianos de Andrea Palladio. Es el primer ejemplo de biblioteca circular en el Reino Unido. Debajo de esta plaza hay salas que pueden contener hasta unos 600.000 libros.

This is one of the most characteristic buildings in Oxford and belongs to its huge library. Oxford is a university city and contains one of the biggest libraries in Europe, called Bodleian Library, which is the second biggest library in the U.K. after the British Library. It even has underground stores and keeps a copy of all the manuscripts that have been published in the U.K.
The library itself comes from the medieval period (XIV century) and has been growing up since then. In particular, this building in the picture is called the Radcliffe Camera, and was built between 1737 and 1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. Nowadays it is a reading space. James Gibbs was the architect and used the English Palladian style, derived from venetian designs by Andrea Palladio. It is the first example of circular library in the U.K. Underneath this square, there are underground rooms that can contain up to 600.000 books.
