This is the main branch of my hometown’s public library. The building has been there a long time. I remember going there when I was eight years old.
They are currently building a new library just a block away. It’s coming along nicely and looks like it’s going to be really big. On this particular morning the police were driving around a lot because there’d been an accident just a road over. (You can click on the pics to make them bigger.)


Had the old one run out of space for new books?

I’m not sure. I think they wanted more space for things like hosting events and such too. The old library wasn’t very good for that.

Events sounds fun!

yeah, libraries are transitioning into more “social space” and strictly a place for books to reside. I didn’t use to be ok with that, but now, I think I am.
