Civic Center Library staff and California Room staff spent the day cleaning and reorganizing the library's perimeter storage area, for better use of the space.
These photos document the before-during-and-after process.
The library at Lydiard House in Wiltshire complete with an effigy of one of the members of the St John family, the house's former owners (although the teddy bear is real!) The library contains hardbound copies of Dickens novels, Victorian encyclopaedias and artwork by the house's own Lady Diana Beauclerk.

On May 25, 1888, Muskegon lumber baron Charles H. Hackley announced that he would donate a library to the city. Hackley stipulated that the facility be "forever maintained as a library."
Muskegon citizens celebrated the laying of the Hackley Public Library cornerstone on May 25, 1889, the anniversary of Charles Hackley's donation of the library. The library was constructed of Maine granite and trimmed with Marquette sandstone. The reading room windows depict Shakespeare, Goethe, Longfellow and Prescott. On October 15, 1890, the completed library was dedicated. The lot, building and furnishings amounted to a $175,000 gift.
The library is a direct reflection of the city's history and a fitting monument to one of its most prominent citizens.

It's a measure of short architectural attention spans that The Rock comes up a lot when people feel the need to talk about 'ugly' architecture on the campus of Brown. I think it's decent, inside and outside.
VISUAL LIBRARIES - Leave your Mark.
A collaborative, visual project which encourages you to sign out a Visual Library Book and ‘Leave Your Mark’.
A Visual Library Book is whatever you want it to be, a sketchbook, a journal, a diary, a notepad.
You can ‘Leave Your Mark’ in whatever way you want, ranging from drawing, writing, sewing, adding photographs, markings, printing and sticking. How you make your marks is entirely up to you. All we ask is that you have fun with the different themes. Just borrow it on your library card with other books and materials. If you are not already a member, just ask the staff to help you.
45 Visual Library Books have been placed in Portsmouth Central Library and each has its own theme ranging from; Portsmouth, My City, When I Open My Eyes, Whilst I Was Waiting, Love, What’s in My Pocket and Memories. The intention is for you to feel free to explore the Visual Library Books and choose a theme that you like.

“A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.” ― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Central Library (1876-84, architect George Corson), built as the Municipal Buildings. Its lavish fittings include a tremendous ceramic display, with tiles made by Edward Smith & Co of Coalville on the walls of the staircases, corridors and many rooms. The most spectacular area is the original reading room, to the right of the entrance, whose walls and ceiling are entirely covered in Smith & Co tiles. The vaulted ceiling is faced with coloured hexagonal tiles, some of which are hollow and form part of the room’s ventilation system, and there is also a series of terracotta busts of literary figures, including Milton and Shakespeare, modelled by the London artist Benjamin Creswick.
Built in 1901 by George Goodman on land he donated, this Richardson Romanesque was the longest-running library in California, as his donation stipulated that the building would be used as a library or returned to his heirs. After the city library moved in the 1970s, it became a research library of the Napa County Historical Society. This photo was taken in October 2013.
