Love for Libraries

There's something magical about libraries. In addition to being peaceful, well-ordered treasure troves, they have generated a wonderful style and subculture. I thought I'd kick off my (and your) day with some lovely library eye candy.

Beautiful, no? For more library-related photos and links, check out this post from Kaitlyn's excellent (retired) blog, Librarian Science.

The photograph below appears as part of an incredible series called The City. Artist Lori Nix built and photographed several post-apocalyptic dioramas, including this intricate, magical library. Amazing!

The photos below of people sleeping in libraries crack me up. As someone who works in a library, I can attest that they are very realistic!

(View these and more in the Flickr gallery, People Sleeping in Libraries.)

To celebrate my love of all things related to books, sweaters, tweed, eyeglasses, and shelves, I created this Librarian Chic board on Pinterest. If you have anything to add, please let me know in the comments of this post!

(For links to the individual items, view the board on Pinterest.)

Thanks for reading! ;)

Some have pictures of famous art works.Often times a slight change in angle or a step left or right can solve the problem and make a photo so much better.
