I pass by Bridgeton library on my way to work every day and couldn't believe how similar this one in Woodside was. Turns out it was the same architect - d'oh! Anyways, the scotcities website reveals:
"Woodside Library in St Georges Road was built with funds provided to the city by Andrew Carnegie in 1901. It was the first of James Robert Rhind's Edwardian Baroque style libraries to be completed, opening in March 1905.
Woodside was the largest and grandest of the Carnegie libraries of Glasgow, featuring a huge glazed dome over the main library area and tall windows to provide abundant natural light."
In 2005–2006, Fondren Library’s sixth floor was completely renovated to provide an open, beautifully appointed space for reading, meetings and research. With its handsome seating, study carrels and private meeting rooms, the sixth floor has quickly become a destination space on campus. Accessible only with a Rice ID, the space affords striking panoramic views of the campus and provides a respite for students seeking a quiet, convenient and cozy retreat.
The library, or sitting room, where we added a beadboard ceiling over the old, cracked plaster (covered in a popcorn finish), along with refinising the floor and tiling the fireplace surround.

"Collection Interface Zone" display units and wide aisles draw patrons into the bookstacks and encourage them to engage the collections.
The next stage of spring has come to town. All over the town park crocuses are springing up.
They are a lovely sight coming up out of the still brown grass on a typical April day. All the more so for being the first thing I noticed as I walked out of the library.
Many of the crocuses are in flowerbeds but just as many are popping out of the grass seemingly at random.
I wonder how they got there? Did guerilla gardeners slip them under the grass one autumn? Did mice or birds dig them up and drop them elsewhere when they found they were inedible? Or were the municipal gardeners feeling creative one day?
The former Birchfield Community Library was situated by the busy Birchfield Road roundabout (where the A34 meets the A4040), diagonally opposite the Crown and Cushion pub. The building was still around in March 2005 but had a poor state of repair that eventually resulted in demolition, library services then being transferred to a temporary base at Earlsbury Grange.
