The main public library in Stockholm was being renovated during our visit. It’s sure to be nice, but it was disappointing not to see it on this trip. Instead, we went to the largest open branch, the Tranströmerbiblioteket. You can read about our visit at librarylandproject.org/stories-blog...

The library had an impressive collection to browse through. The F.D. Millet Room and the teen room were certainly stars of this show! Before leaving, we had a lovely chat with multiple staff members about the building & the community. It was an interesting and informative visit!

This was the second time we visited the Gladys E. Kelly Library. It’s as beautiful as ever! Interactive displays, plenty of spaces to work, and friendly staff make every visit remarkable. We even got to help a patron at a public computer. We can’t wait to come back a third time!

How lucky we are to live in such enlightened times! This crowd would like to return to some ahistorical fantasy land. Perhaps, if they can go back far enough, they'll reach the point before fire. That would keep books safe!
