\nThis private school library is the largest (and coolest) building on campus. Not only are there statues of gods and goddess inside the building, but there are two statues of gryphons guarding the door. Plus, the library’s home to ancient artifacts – weapons, jewelry, and more. Not to mention the impressive book collection. At first, Nickamedes seems to be your stereotypical librarian, but there’s more to him than meets the eye. This is a library I’d love to spend hours exploring.<\/p>\n
\nElizabeth’s lonely at school, so she finds a job at the New York Circulation Material Repository, hoping to make friends. \u00a0This library does not circulate books– instead, it circulates items of historical and magical significance. \u00a0The Brothers Grimm have their own room filled with items from their tales. I’m not sure which item to borrow first…<\/p>\nLibrary Lover’s Mystery series<\/strong> by Jenn McKinlay
\nIn a small Connecticut town by the shore resides Briar Creek Library. Lindsey, the new director, works to update the library. I love how she recognizes people in town and immediately thinks of their favorite authors. Beth, the Children’s Librarian, is perfect. She loves dressing up in costume and makes story hour come alive. I would enjoy the crafternoon program – a weekly book club and craft afternoon.<\/p>\n
\nIn this middle grade read, public library was torn down twelve years ago, and a generation of kids haven’t had the good fortune of a library– until now. Famous game designer Mr. Lemoncello builds a state of the art library building that sounds amazing – picture a Willy Wonka type library complete with the latest and most innovative technology and floor to ceiling bookshelves . I wouldn’t mind being stuck overnight here.<\/p>\n
