Bibliolexicon, A Passion for Books (x)

Parmi tous les romans qui sont arrivés récemment en librairie, en voici quelques-uns qui ont attiré notre attention.

Recently at Literary Hub Headquarters (read: the bar down the street from our actual office), the editorial staff sat around discussing the books—and more specifically, the book covers—that have dr…

As someone whose entire life revolves around books and words, it struck me that I haven’t given much thought to words about books. It’s time to remedy that particular oversight. The ter…

I always thought it was pretty self-explanatory that you should read the introduction first. I mean, it introduces the text, right? If you weren't supposed to read it first, why would they put it there?

BookSpace was asked to visit the three primary schools and develop some ideas for three new library spaces. The challenge for BookSpace was to bring some uniformity to what were three very different spaces. Springwood Junior Academy, with its existing library was the smallest space, Thurcroft Junior Academy only needed to cater for KS2 pupils and Lowedges was being used as a meeting room and required a total refurbishment. “We wanted to treat this as one project from start to finish rather than looking at three separate libraries.

Merton College Library is one of the earliest libraries in England and the oldest library in the world in continuous daily use. The oldest part, known as the Upper Library, is on the first floor of two orthogonal ranges of buildings that were built around 1373 by William Humberville as part of the completion of Mob Quad, one of the first collegiate quadrangles wikipedia

“With freedom, books, flowers and the moon, who could not be happy?” mused Oscar Wilde. Indeed, the simplest of life’s pleasures are often our most sacred. Like the feeling of wiling away an afternoon with no plan or watching your favorite movie series on repeat, libraries will always hold a special kind of magic. Magic, say, found in a beloved novel series turned record breaking movie series such as Harry Potter. From libraries that look like they are straight from Hogwarts to modern day libraries that could be from a futuristic spin off, here’s 20 beautiful libraries from around the world to be both magically lost… and found in.
