During the month of March 2010, all of the library programs focused on the book Martin's Big Words, written by Doreen Rappaport and illustrated by Bryan Collier. French journalist Anne Sinclair visited during this time and wrote in her blog of the visit:
"A library was built there with some 4000 books in English in order to familiarize them with the official language of the country. These books come from various loans and donations, and range from children’s stories to more sophisticated novels, to picture books or to atlases. The most consulted is the Guinness book of World Records, but the National Geographic Atlases come in as a close second. How to give dreams to those who cannot escape...
Martin Luther King was the figure and the theme of the week, and illustrated books with his famous quotes inspired drawings, paintings and skits performed by the children for their visitors with spirit and pride." (Translated by Penelope Meyers, Barnard College)

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.

Was trying to get to Broad Street without going through Chamberlain Square and Paradise Forum, but Fletchers Walk was closed (was a Sunday), so went via the garden opposite the Town Hall, and ended up going up the spiral staircase, though Chamberlain Square and into Paradise Forum.
I think you can shortcut through Fletchers Walk between Monday to Saturday.
When I got off the spiral staircase, I saw this section leading to Library Theatre Birmingham.

Reputedly one of the largest libraries in Europe the new Library of Birmingham appears to have been positively received both critically and by the public. A year on from it's opening in 2013 its popularity has not waned and its form and detail is impressive to behold.
The exterior is almost entirely clad in a striking filigree of metalwork, a nod to the city's industrial heritage, whilst within are several layers of open spaces and reading rooms, along with roof terraces giving a fine view over the city.

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 Archiginnasio of Bologna is one of the most important buildings in the city of Bologna; once the main building of the University of Bologna, it currently houses the Archiginnasio Municipal Library.
The construction of the Archiginnasio dates back to the 16th century, when Piazza Maggiore was drastically remodeled under papal orders; the Fountain of Neptune was built during this same period.
