Stef..."Adapting" is just the right word.<br /><br />Stefanie, that's right - this is my farewell to the St. Louis libraries.<br /><br />E.L. - that sounds not so bad. The importance of the physical space of the library has grown for me for some reason. I now like to write in them. I don't know why.Amateur Reader (Tom)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13675275555757408496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383938214852108244.post-37991263743544298952010-07-14T13:36:22.862-05:002010-07-14T13:36:22.862-05:00Oh how I miss the library at the University of Roc...Oh how I miss the library at the University of Rochester. Nearly three million books! *cries*<br /><br />Of the three libraries I have access to right now, one is in lovely old house, another is brand-new and completely state of the art, and the third is located downtown, right in the middle of the ghetto, and is a gorgeous five-story Neoclassical building with Corinthian columns. It is listed in the National Register of Historical Places.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058705381647529328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383938214852108244.post-30982261159212702632010-07-14T10:50:56.851-05:002010-07-14T10:50:56.851-05:00What a fantastic library!

Getting stuff in English is so-so. I can get a lot of stuff, I cannot get all that I want. But I may also be a little greedy.<br /><br />Good luck adapting to the new library system!verbivorehttp://incurablelogophilia.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
