Lovely Libraries

Must blog must blog.

Ok following up on the staircase entry, here’s another architectural-intellectual-obsessively-organized wonder- Libraries. I’m not really interested in how long a library has existed, but rather the long-patience it takes to accumulate a ginormous collection of books. They’re simply physical books, but knowing they all speak of some sort of knowledge reveals itself when a book is opened, sort of creates a magical atmosphere. Kind of like having the world at the palm of your hands, or snuggly packed into shelves.
Again thank you Atlas Obscura for exploring such wonders.
