Libraries Tempting Students!! How????With Coffee!!!





**********
Portugal

I really appreciated your contribution, anamb7  .
 I �ve been through the links . Made me remember all the libraries where I spent so pleasant times. British Council is one of them. I still keep my first card: 1965, 13yo. I�ve got a new one, too. No relevant differences in the photos, though. So, I guess I should show my appreciation sending you this: a futuristic library in Taiwan:

What do you think of it? Well, not just a cover up for the next one, the library just across the street here.

 

There are several rooms, in fact. There is a small bar at the entrance: this library is always loaded with students, and young people need "supplies".
 

Further,  there is a space - round tables - where people read newspapers. And a huge message board where readers write suggestions/complaints; everybody gets a proper response.

To the left there �s the children �s room, in fact, 3 rooms: library itself, with a space for storytellers, room for painting and other creative activities, a small auditorium with trunks loaded with fancy clothes: let �s pretend!

 

 

In the middle, the media area: computers, cd, films, generation gap replaced by generation-connect.

To the left, the big library itself, too floors, paintings on the walls, always loaded with ss. Every time I go there, I meet some of the ss I have worked with  for the last 23 years I �ve lived in the neighbourhood.

See you around!
 EDIT: Hello, Caroline! What are you doing there in the pic with the fancy costume? Are you the wolf? I�ll be the fox. Ready to play with the children? Come along! And you too, sweet Nebal, you�ll be the princess.
