This is what you can find at our library each Tuesday during the lunch hour. They bring in a local "dignitary" to read books aloud to the families, all who have sack lunches to munch while listening. This young man, who works at the boys and girls club, did an excellent job. Sorry you can't actually see my kids - it's just so you get a feel for what fun we have there.
The building at the left is the Rubrics. It's the oldest building in the college, having been built about 1700.

Looking at part of the Library that has just been refurbished. A few months a go I would have been standing exactly where the lending desk was.
Now there is no lending desk, though we have a 'information hub' just the other side of the wooden slates on the left for enquires etc.
The seats on the left are based on the original Basil Spence Seats (Spence designed the furniture as well as the building).
In the distance you can just make out the blue lights of the exit gates (using RFID technology).
At the top of the picture you can see a Window, this look from a upper floor room (currently the IT teaching room... not for much longer) on to this light well. When the building was first built the window would have been an external one, the light well and where the picture was taken would have all been outside, at the back of the building (the fact you can see the exit gates and the original back of the building gives you an idea of how thin the original building was).
"In 1853, the decision to build a state library was made at the instigation of Lieutenant-Governor Charles La Trobe and Sir Redmond Barry. A competition was held to decide who would design the new building; local architect Joseph Reed, who later designed the Melbourne Town Hall and the Royal Exhibition Building, won the commission.
On 3 July 1854, the recently inaugurated Governor Sir Charles Hotham laid the foundation stone of both the new library and the University of Melbourne. The library opened in 1856, with a collection of 3,800 books chosen by Sir Redmond, the President of Trustees. Augustus H. Tulk, the first librarian, was appointed three months after the opening.
The first reading room was the Queen's Reading Room (now Queen's Hall), which opened in 1859. Temporary buildings built in 1866 for the Intercolonial Exhibition remained in use by the library until 1909, when work began on a new annexe building to mark the library's Jubilee. This new building was the landmark Domed Reading Room, which opened in 1913 and was designed by Norman G. Peebles" - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Library_of_Victoria
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.
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.

The Home Library Service is one of the most important services that Council provides. For people who love books, it is unimaginable to have to do without them simply because getting to the Library becomes difficult. Thanks to our Home Library Service volunteers and librarians, the Library comes to you!
Not only does the Library come to you but a new friend comes regularly with books that you like. It is not surprising that warm and deep relationships develop between the reader and the volunteer founded on a mutual love of books and as time goes by on other interests as well.
Happy Christmas to all Home Library Readers and their Volunteers & Librarians!
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.

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!)
