Library Appeciation Day

Yesterday was library appreciation day. What fond memories do you have of a library in your life? Do you remember the shelves full of books? Do you remember the stack of books you would check out or just that one book you had been waiting forever to arrive? Did you walk to your library or did the bookmobile arrive every other week?

Look at some of the libraries we have become aware of.

Have you heard of the Biblio Burro? You can look at a NYT slideshow here .

Take a look at this photo journal from the BBC website on the Camel Mobile Libary.

What if the library was an actual castle?  You can read this wonderful blog entry written by Elizabeth Bird yesterday, on the International Youth Library. You might also enjoy looking at the top 100 Children’s Novel Poll  that she conducted.
