Note(s) : Libraries are so much more than collections of books. They are archives of knowledge,
spaces of study, sources of inspiration and connection. Among the world's most universal
and democratic places, they are also outstanding icons of architecture that represent
the societies that built them.Temples of Books celebrates the world's oldest and grandest
shrines to the written word, as well as new and tiny ones: from baroque palaces to
micro-libraries made of recycled plastics, and the unlikely ones in between.Looking
at the diverse architecture of global libraries throughout the ages, Temples of Books
goes further and explores the very idea of libraries themselves. This is a book about
the beauty of books, a book for book lovers and for those who believe in the power
of ideals
