Libraries are built, maintained and nurtured around the world. There are
academic and scholarly libraries, special libraries for different
professions like law and medicine, children's libraries, school libraries,
Parliament libraries, and so on. But the most important among them are the
public libraries. There is a large variation in the size of public
libraries - from the small public libraries in small towns supported by
different State Governments in India to the very large Library of Congress
and the British Library. These libraries are not only places for people to
read books but they perform a variety of other functions. They are centres
of community action.
And in certain cases they are also examples of great architecture and
beautiful buildings. Here is a selection of 25 beautiful libraries. Chennai
can be proud to find Connemara Public Library in the list. Visit and enjoy
some stunning photographs:
