The tallest building West of the Mississippi, for now. They're building an observation deck that should be open early 2016. That's exciting, we have one more than zero of them in Downtown now. Things are on an upswing in this area.

The magnificent monastery library was built between 1680 and 1689, also by Carlo Antonio Carlone. It is one of the great libraries of Austria and contains about 160,000 volumes, besides 1,700 manuscripts and nearly 2,000 incunabula. The most valuable book is the "Codex Millenarius", a Gospel Book written around 800 in Mondsee Abbey. Facsimiles of this codex may be found in the libraries of a number of universities throughout the world.

The largest surviving chained library in the world is at Hereford Cathedral in the UK, where all the books are still kept under lock and key in their original chains. It has been rebuilt in its original arrangement, exactly as it had been from 1611 to 1841.
Medieval books were very expensive and the chain allowed them to be read but not removed.

Sunday in The State Library and students are still hard at work! The end is in sight and most have already finished the year . I dedicate this shot to all who love to learn...I'm guessing that is all of you!
My favorite library is closed on weekends, so I relied on a shelf of my most favorite childhood reads.

The Library of Trinity College Dublin serves Trinity College and the University of Dublin. It is the largest library in Ireland and, as a legal deposit or "copyright library", it has rights to receive material published in the Republic of Ireland free of charge; it is also the only Irish library to hold such rights for the United Kingdom. The Library is the permanent home to the famous Book of Kells. Two of the four volumes are on public display, one opened to a major decorated page and the other to a typical page of text. The volumes and pages shown are regularly changed.[2] Members of the University of Dublin also have access to the libraries of Tallaght Hospital and the Irish School of Ecumenics, Milltown.
The library was built in the year 1900. Architect: Hans Hedlund.
Nowadays the building is a library for the University of Gothenburg and an archive for the city.
