Designed by architect Frederick Gibberd, whose other works include Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral ("The Shuttlecock"), London Central Mosque, and the master plan for Harlow New Town in Essex.
The library was part of a set of buildings, including the town's police station and magistrates' court (both now demolished and replaced by the nearby Warwickshire Justice Centre) and Powell House (the local Inland Revenue office).

(The implied value judgment above is mine. The film was propagandistically espousing quite the opposite. Of course, as a librarian, I do believe that the Martian was entitled to said knowledge, and it was the library's job to provide him with it. The library probably should have had in its collection books representing a wider range of viewpoints though.)
This was a film produced by the petroleum industry about a Martian that goes to an Earth library to learn about oil drilling and capitalism, and brings the knowledge back home to transform Mars.
The Martian leader had reservations about these ideas but they vapourised him and implemented them anyway.
Tierni Sager brought her pet snakes and hissing cockroaches to the library and shared her knowledge with the kids then gave them a chance to touch them...if they dared!

Description of work: Commissioned by Hadrian the building has captivated Western architects for generations. In 608 it was one of the first Roman temples to be converted into a church, Santa Maria Rotonda, and it has never been a ruin. ""It compromises two elements: the first a conventional but deep porch supported by unfluted granite columns, its plinth originally approached via a flight of steps. This crudely abuts and provides the entrance to the second: the highly unconventional circular temple with its hemispherical dome. The dome springs from a drum whose height is exactly that of the radius of the dome (43.2 meters, 142 feet)..."" (Woodward, Christopher. The Buildings of Europe: Rome. Manchester University Press, 1995. p 40.)

A veterinarian visited the library today and taught the children how important it is to take care of your pets and what a veterinarian does when a pet does get sick and must visit the vet's office.
"Completed in 1995, the 1560sqm Eltham Library is located in a community that prides itself on its artistic heritage and commitment to environmental issues. Pioneering artist and architect Justus Jorgensen established an artistic and cultural precinct Montsalvat in Eltham in the 1930s. In the 1940s Alastair Knox won historic approval to build in earth construction. Mud brick beame a defining feature of this area. The design reflects this heritage and incorporates many other challenges including existing trees, an historic building, overlooking from the main road and proximity to the railway line. Sustainable natural materials were used including earth, radially sawn and recycled timbers and copper panelling and flashing. The library is much enjoyed by its users and is a focal point for community activities."

In order to move the bookshelves into areas with low ceilings, the contractor, SEI, built this low-riding dolly. The shelves were lifted an inch off the floor and rolled to their new locations where they were reassembled into full ranges.
A visit to Knole Park gave me the ideal excuse to find the old library in Sevenoaks. The building was funded by Andrew Carnegie on land donated by Henry Swaffield, and opened in 1905.
A lovely building, it now has been turned into offices.
And this evening I created a new page on my website which traces the Carnegie legacy in England and Wales: carnegielegacyinengland.wordpress.com/2021/11/21/sevenoak...
