I always daydream about having a huge room of a library in my future home. Apart from miles of books and built-in shelves to the ceiling and possibly a second floor above the main one, my dream library would include the following and more:
-Large rectangular table or 2
-comfortable chair to sit at the tables
-comfortable lounge chairs or sofas
-atlas/dictionary stands
-at least one computer and desk set up to be able to access scanned documents or articles, and of course have access to my catalogue
-book carts (to take stuff off the shelves and wheel it to where I am sitting next to a computer or table)
-steps
-some sort of hidden door/room to be accessed from one of the bookshelves
here are a few things I love:
here are a few pictures of great libraries:

We have 2 of these Norrebo shelves from IKEA that we use to store part of our library collection. Although they are 2 sided, which means we can put books on both sides, there's not nearly enough room for our books on them.

Of those living today in America who were alive 50 years ago, few could have imagined, let alone predicted, that homosexuality would encroach on our culture as it has. In fact, it would have been unthinkable.

From April until June this year I did my summer internship in the events department at exchange4media. I was quite unhappy to be working in Delhi in the hot summer so I was already off to a bad start. Now that I think back though, it was a trip marked by some very memorable moments.

Obama and the CIA: Making the Terrorists' Day
By Peter Ferrara on 9.2.09 @ 6:08AM
President Obama has decided that the CIA is a greater threat to America than Al Qaeda and Islamic terrorism. If that decision turns out to be wrong, with thousands of Americans dying in another terrorist attack, President Obama and the Democrat Party will end up paying a grievous political price, which would be well deserved.
As former Vice-President Dick Cheney said on Fox News Sunday this past week,
We had a track record now of eight years of defending the nation against any further mass casualty attacks from Al Qaeda.
