Look at that carpet! Isn't it fantastic. This is from the entrance through to the fiction area. The library courtyard (great in summer) can be seen through the windows. The chair on the left is at the information desk.

Tipton Public library. Built 1905 by George H Wenyon. Red brick with bands of yellow terra cotta and tile roof. Entrance at base of tower facing Victoria Road. Above the round-arched doorway is a terra cotta panel with inscription: “Tipton Free Library AD 1905”. A foundation stone is inscribed. “Erected by the Munificence of Andrew Carnegie Esq.“
The Oriental Library, Tokyo. Books from private collection of George Morrison, the Australian correspondent for the Times in Peking, in the early 20th century.
I added this cabinet between two existing built-in shelf units to house electronics and a wide, flat panel television. The red from the ceiling continues down this wall to frame the set.
The library, featuring lots of places to sit, lots of books to read, a fireplace, games to play.
Years ago, I did a field school project for school where I visited historic spring-based resorts in Southern West Virginia and wrote recommendations on how to best use, preserve, and promote these historic resources (most of them underused, with the exception of the Greenbrier.) Some of the other students had other projects in the area, so we all traveled down together.
We stayed at Pence Springs, a historic resort with a fantastic history. The resort started out as a place for people to enjoy the healing spring waters, fell on hard times during the depression, became an all-girls boarding school, and when that too failed, became a WOMEN'S PRISON, which it remained for many years. When that closed, it was abandoned for a very long time, until it was rescued and restored, back into a resort. It was bought and sold a few times. Alas, now the (huge) property has been split up, and the hotel building itself is a private boarding school, no trespassing!
This makes me very upset, because I can truly say it was one of the nicest, most beautiful, most relaxing, fantastic experiences I have ever had, and it breaks my heart that I can't go stay there again.
Oh, by the way, I did try the water while I was there. It was very sulfurous, but I would say it was slightly invigorating! They had a cooler in the lobby that was filled with water from the spring for patrons to drink/try.

I'm in love with this library on so many levels. First is the building itself, which was built in 1912 and is a perfect example of the arts and crafts period. Second, it was a gift from Andrew Carnegie, who lived and worked in my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA, and gave so many libraries to the country. Third, the interior is graced with warm old wood from the same period. Fourth, it's full of books! Beyond that are free wifi, excellent places to set up your laptop, a comfy fireplace grouping, friendly, helpful people, a kiddie splash area (outside, of course), and many more amenities. Just a wonderfully pleasant and inviting place to be.
