Your library series is always a bright spot of my day. I wanted to add one of my favorite libraries from the small Texas town of Kilgore (population ~11,000). Built in 1939 to look like a fairy-tale castle, it was 4 blocks away and a magical safe haven for a voracious 12 year old reader.
A small L-shaped light brick fairy-tale like structure with a turret, peaked roof, and expansive windows nestled among trees on a wide green lawn.

Wow! Texts are super rare for the Hittites, basically there’s just one archive and it’s 95% lists of prayer sacrifices to mountain gods, so this is really, really exciting!

A fluffy black cat with large white eyes lies on its side on green grass beneath a textured sky fading from blue to pale pink. White handwritten text reads: “Maybe sometimes you want to do everything so badly that you end up doing nothing at all. That’s okay. Maybe you’re more tired than you realise. I just hope you know that taking care of yourself counts as doing something, too.”

It has come to my attention that The Hobbit has been translated into Latin. This qualifies as A Good Thing, and I’m pretty sure Tolkien would approve. Now all we need is the Old English and Old Norse versions
