In the northeastern United States, in the state of Connecticut, lies a private library—The Jay Walker Private Library—spanning three floors and nearly 3,600 square feet (about 110 tsubo or 330 square meters). This library is one of the most famous private libraries in the world. Its collection is vast and diverse, ranging from models of artificial satellites, animal figures, and astronomical telescopes (such as a backup piece of the Soviet Union’s Sputnik 1 satellite), to experimental aircraft like NASA's X-29 and the oldest paper copy of the Bible, along with various other rare and unique items. Today, we have the opportunity to step into this museum and explore its collections, gaining a deeper understanding of the world.
The Jay Walker Private Library bookend is perfect for collection and display in your library, exuding elegance and sophistication. It is a rare and exquisite gift.

Love this so much. It's a 1911 Carnegie public library building in Alma, NE. It's been converted to a 4bd, 3ba, home, but it still looks like a library. 2,025 sq ft, $510k.
Tumblr media
Enter the original foyer and push open the double doors to the main living area.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Right in front of you is the original circulation desk.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They've turned this former office into a family room.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A nice living room is located behind the circ. desk.
Tumblr media
On display under the glass on the desk they've got old newspaper articles and memorabilia pertaining to the history of the library.
Tumblr media
That green room must've been the children's dept.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The kitchen's quite large. This is lovely.
Tumblr media
There's plenty room in here. The table looks like an original oak library table.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I would imagine that those are the original bookshelves around the room.
Tumblr media
Stairs in the entrance foyer going down to the basement.
Tumblr media
Love the old brick walls.
Tumblr media
So, according to this door, the city clerk's office was located down here. Now, it's bedrooms.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Large primary bedroom with an ensuite.
Tumblr media
Bedroom #2 is a good size.
Tumblr media
Nice shower room.
Tumblr media
Bedroom #3. It's nice that they all have closets, but it's dark down here b/c of the basement windows.
Tumblr media
Bedroom #4, the smallest room, is still a good size.
Tumblr media
They don't show the interior, but this looks like a little guest house.
Tumblr media
The garage is huge, b/c it must've been a municipal garage at one time.
Tumblr media
Man cave situation going on in here.
Tumblr media
The garage is gigantic.
Tumblr media
They have a nice big patio, but with a .91 acre lot, there's almost a full acre to put in a pool, gardens, etc.

"At 19, I read a sentence that re-terraformed my head: "The level of matter in the universe has been constant since the Big Bang." In all the aeons we have lost nothing, we have gained nothing - not a speck, not a grain, not a breath. The universe is simply a sealed, twisting kaleidoscope that has reordered itself a trillion trillion trillion times over. Each baby, then, is a unique collision - a cocktail, a remix - of all that has come before: made from molecules of Napoleon and stardust and comets and whale tooth; colloidal mercury and Cleopatra's breath: and with the same darkness that is between the stars between, and inside, our own atoms. When you know this, you suddenly see the crowded top deck of the bus, in the rain, as a miracle: this collection of people is by way of a starburst constellation.
Families are bright, irregular-shaped nebulae.
Finding a person you love is like galaxies colliding. We are all peculiar, unrepeatable, perambulating micro-universes - we have never been before and we will never be again. Oh God, the sheer exuberant, unlikely face of our existences. The honour of being alive. They will never be able to make you again. Don't you dare waste a second of it thinking something better will happen when it ends. Don't you dare."
— Caitlin Moran

Why You Should Search The Public Domain | Keeping Art History Alive
Tumblr media
Whether you’re a crafter looking for decorative designs for journals and paper projects, or a college student searching for inexpensive materials for DIY decor, the public domain is the way to go.
Here are some of the best uses I’ve found as a paper crafter using Artvee.com
Faux ephemera for junk journals.

Few things reduce me to incoherent rage faster than when I tell a patron that no, we can't do something, it's against library policy, and they reply with "Well, [other] library system lets me do it!"
Then go there? Stop bothering me? Maybe eat a dick on your way?
