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.
ODC: library
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.
This was the late Lord Montagu's sitting room where he would often relax with his family at the end of the day. In later years, he also used the room as his office. He had a large record collection which included artists as varied as Ted Heath, Jimi Hendrix and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf. In the classical section, his favourite composers were Beethoven, Britten, Elgar, Mahler, Strauss and Wagner. It was the operas of the latter which he particularly enjoyed playing at full volume.
The book collection is mainly that of Henry James, Baron Montagu of Boughton, whose books spanned the 18th and 19th century, and the natural history collection of John Montagu, spanning the late Victorian era to the early 20th century. The library and its bookshelves were moved from the room below to make way for the Picture Gallery when Palace House was first opened to the public in 1952.
Beaulieu Palace House is a 13th-century house in Beaulieu, Hampshire, United Kingdom. Originally part of Beaulieu Abbey, the estate was bought in 1538 by Thomas Wriothesley, 1st Earl of Southampton, following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. It is still owned and occupied by the earl's descendants, the Barons Montagu of Beaulieu.
Although still home to the current Lord and Lady Montagu, parts of the house and gardens are open daily to the public. It is a member of the Treasure Houses of England consortium. The Palace House is open to the public as part of the visitor attraction known as "Beaulieu", which includes:
* Beaulieu Abbey
* National Motor Museum
* Beaulieu Palace House
* Secret Army Exhibition – an exhibit about the Special Operations Executive training at Beaulieu during World War II
* Gardens
* A monorail
* Rides
FAR TOO MANY BOOKS IN MY OPINION.
And there were two other carts just like that one to go with it.
It was like the entire library was on a cart, waiting for me to put it ALL away. T^T
A rather special wrought iron sign is on the side of the former Victoria Jubilee Institute and public baths in Tunstall, building of which was started in 1889. The uses of the building included the Free Library and this was marked by the sign provided by local worthy and brick & tile manufacturer John Nash Peake in 1901. Sadly the building is now entirely derelict and up for sale at a knock-down price. Renovation of the Grade II listed structure would cost millions.

Although I did the initial sorting, the gorgeous arrangement you see here owes a great deal to the tireless efforts and elegance of my friend Erika, book organizer to the stars [errr, to starting junior professors :-)]

Radcliffe Camera in profile with All Souls in the background.
The Radcliffe Camera was designed by James Gibbs in the English Palladian style and built in 1737–1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. It is the earliest example in England of a circular library.
The College of All Souls of the Faithful Departed, of Oxford, was founded by Henry VI and Henry Chichele (fellow of New College and Archbishop of Canterbury), in 1438.

The building now known as the Mortlock Wing was opened on 18 December 1884 as a Public Library, Museum and Art Gallery for the colony of South Australia with 23,000 books and a staff of three.
Construction of the building took over 18 years to complete after the initial foundations were laid in 1866.
The foundation stone was laid on 7 November 1879 by Sir William Jervois and the building was constructed by Brown and Thompson at a total cost of £43,897.
The building is French Renaissance in style with a mansard roof. The walls are constructed of brick with Sydney freestone facings with decorations in the darker shade of Manoora stone.
The interior has two galleries, the first supported by masonry columns, and the second by cast iron brackets. The balconies feature wrought iron balustrading ornamented with gold while the glass-domed roof allows the chamber to be lit with natural light. Two of the original gas "sunburner" lamps survive in the office space located on the second floor at the southern end.(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Library_of_South_Australia)
