I dag skal jeg besøge det her spændende bibliotek i Cerritos, CA 🙌 Glæder mig til at tale med lederen og se det hele. Ville ønske resten af familien var ligeså begejstrede for #librarytourism som jeg 😅

Great fun the last couple of days at @natlibscot.bsky.social comparing nine editions of Murray's Handbook for Scotland (1867-1913), looking at how the descriptions of @innerpeffray.bsky.social as a visitor attraction/tourist destination have changed throughout time. #librarytourism

While in Boston, I stopped by the gorgeous public library. As a voracious reader who LOVES libraries (esp our own @stpaullibrary!) I always try to visit them when I’m traveling. 10/10 no notes! #LibraryTourism

More #librarytourism, this time from the Pompidou Centre library in Paris.
Interior photo of the library at the Pompidou Center in Paris. It show people working at desks, at computers and in comfortable seating. The decor is modern, and there is much natural light coming from exterior windows along the far wall.

While in #yxe for a #library conference, I took myself on a self-guided tour of #Saskatoon Public Library. I ended up being invited to make slime! 😄 #LibraryTourism #LibraryLife
Saskatoon Public Library logo on wall behind circulation desk, with computer workstation against the wall. Picture of the wide open manga and graphic novel section, with a Hot Titles shelf and a few groupings of tables and chairs in the foreground. View down one aisle of the Adult Non-Fiction stacks towards the lobby. Two SPL bookmarks on left, a copy of the SPL guide on the right, with bright blue glittery slime in a ziplock bag in the middle.

In Washington for the RSC November Meeting, which starts tomorrow. Paid for a couple of nights at Holiday Inn to recover from jet lag and also had energy and time yesterday to WALK THE TUNNEL FROM
THE CAPITOL BUILDING TO LIBRARY OF CONGRESS!!!

#librarytourism #librariansontour #libraryofcongress
I am waking from the Capitol Building through the tunnel. Sign above me says “Library of Congress” I am waking from the Capitol Building through the tunnel. Sign above me says “Library of Congress” I am standing between signs in gold lettering pointing back to the Capitol Visitor Center and forwards to Library of Congress. I am standing against a gorgeous pink marble wall with a gold sign with the LC logo and saying “LIBRARY OF CONGRESS” in gold lettering. I am wearing a Smithsonian Fossil Lab t-shirt because yesterday was a self-funded tourist day and I went to the Natural History Museum too.
