However -- as a librarian, I was actually getting claustrophobic about how little space there was on the end of each shelf for new additions. 10 new books in a section means that entire building's shelves have to be shifted at the same time. Librarian. Worst. Nightmare. My lovely SF friends took me to the Potrero branch this year, and I do agree it’s a gorgeous, gorgeous, library.

I recently posted a photo tour of the gorgeous public library we have here in Boston, not sure if you've ever been inside? The place just oozes with whimsy. Posting my link below; if you're ever in Copley Square, you should totally pop in! Love your blog, Maggie. :) http://www.theoddbroad.com/the_odd_broad/2012/07/thebostonpubliclibrary.html I love that you’re doing this!

Maybe we could make it a nationwide movement to boost federal funding, grassroots style. If you don’t mind, I may steal this idea and hit up all the libraries in Denver.

It's peaceful and cheerful, and the librarians are always friendly. There are many great libraries in San Francisco, but this one is my favorite.
