The Ambeince of Reading

For the past few years, I have been fascinated with the interior design of libraries. I think this fascination came from viewing the movie City of Angels. Not only was it the first DVD I ever bought of a movie. But, it was the first movie that really gave me a Rose Colored glass view of what a type of library I would like to work in. Each time I watched a scene from the film featuring the San Francisco Main Library, I felt the need to call upon the spirit Mathematicians and Ancient Greek philosophers.  As large as that library was depicted in the film, the idea of stories leaping out at books just flashed through my mind. 

With that being said, there truly is something to the aesthetics of a library. Granted, not all universities or municipalities can afford the money to build such a grandiose library. However, finding the right mixture of budgets and creativism can entice users of the local library to be repeat patrons.
