OK, you're public library is way cooler than ours it. I was like, why is Gwen taking pictures of her books and then I realized that it's just a cool ass building face.
Very nice!

The actual library is even cooler than this.

Wow, that's cool.

Kind of, except don't these look like shite Book Club editions which would be horrible inside?
(All: Oh, you goddam Charlie Bringdown!)
Gwen's River City Images (93 months ago | reply)
Actually no, in person they look like leather bound editions.

Love it! How do they handle graffiti?
Gwen's River City Images (86 months ago | reply)
Good, question. I've never seen any graffiti on it yet. I'll ask the next time I'm down there.

I hadn't seen this on your photostream before - great shot and wonderful mural. I'm amazed by the 'classic' edition of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, a book my father gave me when I was 14 or so.

These are real early in my photostream. I joined Flickr on 9/9/04 and this was taken later that same month.

What a great picture. I have used it, with credit link to you, on my top 10 lists site. The photograph is being used on my list of top 10 bizarre feats of architecture.

That is the coolest thing I've seen! What a great idea for a library!
