New library.

That's a great extract from the collection of Benjamin Stone's work Brumgum.

Ell, your interior photos look excellent. I think maybe the investment will be worthwhile, especially as it houses an enviable volume of records, docs etc.

Has anyone else been struck by the significance of the Shakespeare Room and the fact that it holds that collection that has been moved on several occasions from the earlier libraries? Or am I being a tad sentimental? Viv.
 
It went Level LG, G, 1, 2, 3, 4, then I assume 7, 8, 9.

Thanks Viv. All the books that were hidden in the old library seem to be accessible in the new one! The kind of storage space that you wouldn't normally have access to!DSCF3758.jpg

Wish there was an entrance from the back on Cambridge Street, as only entrances are from Centenary Square (including side entrance in The REP).
