Riverside Public Library (3581 Mission Inn Avenue) - Riverside's new downtown library was dedicated in March 1965. The building was designed by the Riverside architectural firm of Moise, Harbach and Hewlett. It replaced the Carnegie Library, built in 1903, which was demolished to make room for the new building.
Thursday, March 10, at the Seattle Public Library, our Public Space Management Team was at the roadshow to answer questions about permitting sidewalk cafes, streateries, food trucks or food carts, and restaurant-related signage.
Representatives from a number of other city and state agencies – Seattle Department of Construction & Inspections (formerly DPD), Seattle Public Utilities, and the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board, to name a few – were also available to answer any food-business-related questions.
The Food Business Roadshow was a FREE EVENT coordinated by the Office of Economic Development
10 December 1960.
This library was inside the building which had originally housed the Devonport Mechanics' Institute completed in 1849. This was opened as the Devonport Free Public Library on Monday February 6th 1882.
The library in this building, always subject to disruptive behaviour from young people, transferred to Devonport Guildhall in the 1980s.
It was closed in that building in 2009, to reopen in the former St Aubyn's church in 2010.

Bodleian Library, Oxford, the main research library of the University of Oxford, is one of the oldest libraries in Europe, and in Britain is second in size only to the British Library.
Our library books are coded with stickers; green for mysteries, orange for romances, white with a UFO for science fiction, white with a cowboy hat and boots for westerns and yellow with YA for young adult fiction. Regular fiction has no stickers and, of course, non-fiction has a Dewey decimal number, a coding system in itself.

I don't always notice my oddness these days and am always surprised if someone comments. I can't think of a better looking way to store my books lol :)
Headed to the British Library for a post-work seminar on visualising health information, with Dame Sally Davies, the Chief Medical Officer, and Professor David Spiegelhalter, professor of the understanding of risk at Cambridge university. It was chaired by Michael Blastland, who used to work for the BBC training journalists in understanding statistics. It was a fascinating discussion and very lively (though it perhaps doesn't sound it!). I took this on the way in. I actually really like the British Library building even though I know lots of people hate it, and I love the juxtaposition with St Pancras station. (and I love the word juxtaposition too!)
On August 11 and 12, 2011, MSU’s Mitchell Memorial Library hosted over 100 librarians, administrative staff members, libraries and information sciences students, and other professionals from across the country for its annual MidSouth e-Resource Symposium and Emerging Technologies Summit.
The MidSouth e-Resource Symposium – in its 10th year at MSU Libraries – fosters networking, communication, and education among all members of the serials information chain and provides a unique opportunity to enhance knowledge of issues surrounding the acquisition, operation, collection, and management of e-resources in libraries today. This year, Matt Goldner, Product and Technology Advocate at OCLC (Online Computer Library Catalog), shared a presentation on cloud computing and the future of libraries. Also featured during the Symposium was a focused discussion on the use and management of electronic resources in libraries.

Johnston Library at 201 W. 10th Street in Baxter Springs Kansas. Built in 1872 and it was intended to be the County Courthouse but was never used for that purpose since Columbus got the county seat. It was used as the city hall until 1905. In 1905, Peter Nils Johnston, a Swedish immigrant, provided a bequest for the city to establish a permanent library in the building.
National Register #76000817. Added in 1976.

The entrance to Rawtenstall Library was photographed in Summer 1975. This Grade II listed library, designed by Crouch, Butler & Savage, Birmingham and funded by the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, first opened on 1 June 1907 and was extended in 1914.
A branch of the Detroit Public Library system on Martin Street. The building was built in 1913 and restored in 2000.
Our first day in Casablanca, we visited the tallest Mosque in Morocco. The Moroccan art & architecture is a study in symmetry.
As one can imagine, I have tons and tons of photos to sift through. The bad news is, I dropped my D90 in Santorini, Greece -- on concrete. I could only take photos manually, and even then had trouble with focus and exposure.
The Library of Celsus is Ephesus's best known landmark, owing to the remarkable preservation of it's facade which, having collapsed at some point in the Middle Ages was meticulously pieced back together and re-erected in the late1970s (with a concealed stell frame to protect against further earthquake damage).
Ephesus is justly famed as one of the finest ancient Roman sites anywhere. The ruins of the city are extensive with many impressive monuments to amaze the visitor (that have often been partially reassembled to give an indication of their former glory and context).
Unfortunately the fame and popularity of the site means that, unlike most of the classical sites we visited elsewhere, it is constantly crowded with tourists. However the city has always attracted visitors, and among those who spent time here centuries ago were St Paul and St John (and possibly Mary herself if one believes in the authenticity of her nearby residence).
This library is run by Leeds libraries.
