Book excerpt: "Excellent . . . Tracks the history of that greatest of all cultural institutions." —The Washington Post Libraries are much more than mere collections of volumes. The best are magical, fabled places whose fame has become part of the cultural wealth they are designed to preserve. Some still exist today; some are lost, like those of Herculaneum and Alexandria; some have been sold or dispersed; and some never existed, such as those libraries imagined by J.R.R. Tolkien, Umberto Eco, and Jorge Luis Borges, among others. Ancient libraries, grand baroque libraries, scientific libraries, memorial libraries, personal libraries, clandestine libraries: Stuart Kells tells the stories of their creators, their prizes, their secrets, and their fate. To research this book, Kells traveled around the world with his young family like modern–day “Library Tourists.” Kells discovered that all the world’s libraries are connected in beautiful and complex ways, that in the history of libraries, fascinating patterns are created and repeated over centuries. More important, he learned that stories about libraries are stories about people, containing every possible human drama. The Library is a fascinating and engaging exploration of libraries as places of beauty and wonder. It’s a celebration of books as objects, a celebration of the anthropology and physicality of books and bookish space, and an account of the human side of these hallowed spaces by a leading and passionate bibliophile.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Catalogue of the Melbourne: Public Library for 1861 - "There studious let me sit, And hold high converse with the Mighty Dead, Sages of antient time, as Gods rever'd, As Gods beneficent, who blest mankind With arts, with arms, and humaniz'd world." Thomson's "Winter." The establishment of a Public Library in Victoria, supported by the State, and stamped with the characteristics of a National Institution, was made the subject of curly consideration by our first governor, Mr. Latrobe. Fully impressed with the importance of. the influence likely to arise from voluntary adult mental improvement, as well as of the intellectual and moral elevation to be created by a cultivation of the works of standard authors, he placed upon the Estimates of the year 1853, a sum of three thousand pounds ( 3,000) for the purchase of books, and ten thousand pounds ( 10,000) towards the erection of a suitable building to contain them. These sums were cheerfully voted by Parliament; and, recognising and approving the liberality of sentiment which originated the design, two further sums, equal in amount, were in the ensuing year generously provided for the like purposes.
