Spent the morning working at Los Angeles public library. Impressive rotunda action.
Spent the morning working at Los Angeles public library. Impressive rotunda action.
So I maybe drove 29 miles to get a limited edition library card. It's my tenth library card overall. I'm addicted to the limited edition ones this is the fourth in my collection.
Field trip to Los Angeles Public Library Central Branch! We did the free tour, photographed some art, coveted the children's section, and got a library card so we can add LA Library to Libby. On the drive up, we listened to the first couple of hours of Susan Orlean's The Library Book, so we were very aware of the locations of the sprinklers in the old section of the building.
Littens familiar with LA:
My family and I are heading to LA for a long-delayed visit to the Central Library. We know nothing practical about LA and would love some pointers! Specifically, what cool stuff is there within walking distance from the library (~1-2 mile radius)? Cool stuff meaning sites of historical/artistic/architectural significance, or maybe a neat indie bookstore or cafe or park.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
I went on a bookish weekend in LA this weekend. Toured the LA Public Library, which houses the above beautiful chandelier. The Earth surrounded by astrological signs surrounded by a “star” for every state in the US (there were only 48 when the chandelier was made).
