The amazing robotic library at UBC, on display through special windows. The command bridge is the balcony visible at the back, from which the librarians can request the box containing your book.

My husband and I went to the Royal Park Hotel (Rochester, MI) yesterday to celebrate our 19th wedding anniversay. We went bar hopping in downtown Rochester and watched the Michigan/MSU game and then had a wonderful dinner at the hotel. We stayed overnight at the hotel and I can not say enough great things about our accommodations ... I didn't want to leave!
The Library of Michigan hosts the state Department of History, Arts & Libraries, a mega-cool museum, nifty library and has a big white pine growing from the middle.

Some of you may remember that well over a year ago I decided to build a library stepladder/chair. At that time I built a little one sixth scale model, to help work out the design problems. Then I re-drew the plans accordingly, but it was not until last summer that I felt able to take time and thought to starting on building the full-size version. I got all the main components cut out in May, but on account of important summer maintenance jobs needed on the house the task moved only slowly. Hardly had I got decently into the work when other events also intervened, leading to this being put aside completely for a further two months. Ultimately I went to work on it again in September when yes, it finally got finished. As I went along, I had made a complete photographic record of how I built this complicated and interesting piece Now, in the quiet time of winter, I am going to put up that record here on Flickr. For those of you who will be absolutely not interested in this project – fear not: I will intersperse this saga with the odd sketch or painting, which I am now also having time to do.
On the Penguin Trail in Lyttelton, Christchurch January 2021 New Zealand.
Over Term Two and Three in 2020, we had 65 schools from across the city and surrounding towns take part in the Pop Up Penguins Learning Programme. This wasn’t an easy time for students and teachers as Term Two began in the midst of New Zealand’s lockdown period! And yet, with resilience and determination, the schools signed up to take part in this citywide art project.
The Pop Up Penguins Learning Programme has been supported by an amazing line up
of organisations: the International Antarctic Centre, Antarctica New Zealand, the Council of Managers of National Antarctic Programs, Gateway Antarctica and the College of Education, Health and Human Development at the University of Canterbury.
The Learning Partners shared their vast knowledge and expertise within the Learning Programme resource pack and educators from International Antarctic Centre, Gateway Antarctica and the College of Education, Human Development and Health delivered a bespoke Pop Up Penguins themed presentation to over 50 of the schools registered on the Learning Programme.
Students across our city have learned about penguin conservation, Christchurch’s global significance as one of five Gateways to Antarctica and kaitiakitanga, guardianship and protection of the environment. As you find the little penguins in displays around the city, learn about the themes that inspired them.
All little penguin waddles are displayed in indoor locations, please check opening times for these locations to avoid disappointment when you are out on the trail.

Library of Henry Clay Frick House.
The Frick Collection, near Central Park (5th Ave. & 70th) in New York City, is located in the home of industrialist Henry Clay Frick, who made his fortune in steel and then amassed an incredible collection of old master paintings and other European art.
The oak-paneled walls feature low custom bookshelves to give the paintings pride of place. On the right is a Gilbert Stuart oil painting replicating his original portrait of George Washington.
Check out the remarkable website for this museum, including a database of the collection and VR tours of each room with audio, at www.frick.org/

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.[4] The John Rylands Library and the library of the University of Manchester merged in July 1972 into the John Rylands University Library of Manchester; today it is part of the University of Manchester Library. Special collections built up by both libraries were progressively concentrated in the Deansgate building. The special collections, believed to be among the largest in the United Kingdom,[5] include medieval illuminated manuscripts and examples of early European printing, including a Gutenberg Bible, the second largest collection of printing by William Caxton,[6] and the most extensive collection of the editions of the Aldine Press of Venice.[7] The Rylands Library Papyrus P52 is believed to be the earliest extant New Testament text. The library holds personal papers and letters of notable figures, among them Elizabeth Gaskell and John Dalton.
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.
At the top of Death Valley.
This is where you come upon abandoned mines. Sometimes including an abandoned vehicle. And here, we found an abandoned mine vehicle with absolutely no trace of a road anywhere in sight.

The Friendswood Public Library had it's own talent show called Friendswood's Got Talent and we had some of our very own citizens perform and show us what their talents are.
High Prairie Library, Falcon, Colorado was completed in 2010. This small library has all of the elements of a full service library in a compact footprint—but that is larger than the bookmobile that served the community until the library’s completion. Community room, teen area, children’s library, study areas, public computers and a reading room are part of this library.
