ARCHITECTURE: Libraries Around the World [PHOTOGRAPHY]

This is for all the book worms and appreciators of architecture out there; including myself of course. These images shows just how much more the libraries around the world have to offer. Not only do you have access to some beautifully written literature (hard to digitalise) but you have some incredible architecture to take it while you appreciate the much needed peace and quiet that we crave daily without even knowing it. Although most things are digital nowadays, there really is nothing like physically having a book infront of you as you engross yourself in it; no battery dying, no crashing just plain text and pages to read when you please.

Have a look at these beautiful images with locations below.
