Nice photos! The library has a very interesting set-up. It’s arranged more like a book store than a library. Let us know how the 24/7 DVD dispenser goes if you try it out. I’m not close enough to use it.

I noticed that the slideshow does something funny with diagonal lines, so I also uploaded the pictures to flickr:

I saw the new extension library today. For anyone that is going south on Randall and they see the sign that says Bowes Rd detour use Silver Glen don’t worry, you can turn right onto Bowes and the library will be a few blocks down on your left. I don’t get out that way much so I was not sure if turning right on Bowes would get me to it but it did.

It looks to me if as the main library downtown is closer to my home so I will continue going to that one. It has so much more to offer.
