Libraries Around the World: Kansas City, US

Kansas City Public Library, Central Branch

The "Community Bookshelf" runs the length of the south end of the library. Built in 2004, the shelf holds books 25 feet tall and nine feet wide, all of which were suggested by locals and ultimately chosen by the library’s board of trustees. That process ended up with the presentation of a wide variety of books, including Joseph Heller’sCatch-22, Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring, Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man, and — on a particularly daring note for a building that looks like it’s made of books — Fahrenheit 451.
