Day 83, Library World
I was thwarted in my attempt to continue gathering data for my REDACTED project the other week. This was due to a certain cyclical human carriage device being out of action three days before it was advertised to be. Never mind. I'll wander into one of my favourite buildings - this is no big deal as I have hundreds of favourite buildings - and see if there's anything that catches my eye.
I could have gone into the stacks, the strange nether-world of dust and darkness, with possibly the odd dessicated corpse in a quiet corner where they've failed to find their way out and expired due to thirst and hunger. That's not what I did, for some reason I chose to wander up to the mezzanine.
Due to the time of year there weren't many people in so I took the opportunity to take a photograph of a relatively empty Main Library. Apparently it is frowned upon in some quarters to call it the Main Library, but that's what it is.
As it was opened by T.S.Eliot I sometimes refer to it as the T.S.Eliot memorial library. This hasn't yet caught on.
Here is my view from January 2 2015.
Not much studying going on here. Kudos to the three people in at the time.
If I need to do some reading or information gathering while at work I occasionally retreat here. It is quiet even when busy and it is a pleasant place to work.
