This week Karen took over Christina's young adult activity and hosted a catapult building contest! There were a lot of creative designs and some launched a plastic ball all the way across the room!

"The 1918 Sterling Public Library is associated with the nationwide public library movement sponsored by Andrew Carnegie. The dark brown and tan brick building was the town’s first public library and typifies the basic design standards first set forth by the Carnegie Corporation in 1911 for small community libraries funded by the company."--Description from the History Colorado website.

When it opened in 1907 it drew big crowds, forming a queue along Wimborne Road. It is very similar to Springbourne Library but with a few difference's in the stone work.
This and other library boxes circulated among the many lighthouses in the federal system. It contained books, periodicals and reference materials for weather, gardening and maintenance. I can't even imagine how important this slim lifeline was for the people living in these remote and often dangerous locations.
Open3 does possess a few areas which are more study-focussed, such as the Newspaper area just to the side of Enquiry Desk and close to the Library Admin offices. Here we keep current and certain numbers of back-issues of the broadsheet national (and some international) newspapers for you to browse.

the miller avenue library in Oakland has been abandoned for a few years, it seems.

At least it is in chalk. But with all the noise complaints we get, shouldn't the "library sleepers" be much less annoying than the "library cell phone talkers"? Maybe they are snoring. Or worse. Hmmm....
The new Library building in Birmingham is stunning, both inside and out. You are able to ascend right to the roof on the 7th floor - the final journey in a glass lift - where you can look out across the City to the surrounding coutryside. There is also a herb garden on the 4th floor. Hopefully this set of photos gives you a taste of the building and the wonderful veiws of the surrounding buildings.
The craft for the week for both the Tween and the Young Adults was decorating beach towels. The kids brought their own towels and then got to do whatever they wanted to decorate them!
Day 222 of 365 (Saturday) - My children LOVE the library. We often spend a couple of hours there, and it usually passes swiftly, and reasonably calmly. I don't know what it is about the place, but we just feel so relaxed there and enjoy escaping into a world of possibilities (such as the sewing book that I picked up, since when we are there it feels possible we might complete such a craft project at home). Even my youngest started getting interested in books. I was too busy soaking in the calmness that I didn't want to spend lots of time capturing the moment, but rather enjoying it. This kind of scene would never happen at home!
NEW WILMINGTON, Pa.-McGill Library at Westminster may have the front door closed because of construction on the front steps, but the library is open.
Re-stepping at McGill Library
The reconstruction project of the front steps continues through the summer, but library officials want everyone to know McGill is open. You can enter the building from Market Street during regular library hours: Monday-Friday 9- 4.

McGill Library, built in the Collegiate Gothic style, opened on campus in 1938. It is named after Ralph Gibson McGill (1902). McGill was a missionary to Egypt. He drowned in the Mediterranean while trying to rescue children.
McGill Library was rededicated in 2008 after a $6.2 million renovation project. That project included: installation of compact shelving for books and periodicals on the ground floor; relocation of the main entrance and construction of a handicapped-accessible lift; creation of the Williamson and the Drinko Rooms; repair and renovation of the Ferguson Room, including refinishing of vintage 1930s solid oak chairs and library tables; and relocation and renovation of the computer lab.

In the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale University.
The books and manuscripts are kept in the climate-controlled, restricted-access core. The outer walls are composed of panels of thin Vermont marble, thin enough for sunlight to shine through and reveal the grain, veins and patterns in the marble.
In between the two structures is an area accessible to the public, with both permanent and rotating exhibits. On permanent display is a Gutenberg Bible and Audubon's original "Birds of America" (surprisingly large!). The temporary exhibit that I saw was of illustrated texts on alchemy. A subsequent exhibit that I wish I had gone back for was on early astronomical texts.
