We enjoy spending time in libraries. Many an hour was spent in the old Wichita downtown library finding books of interest and audio books to while away the hours on trips.
That library is no more, replaced by a brand new building down by the river. We took two of our grandchildren down to check it out.

| A video wall just inside the entry provides directions to the various areas of the library |
 |
| The stacks are below eye level which makes the space seem expansive |
 |
| Decor is mixture of stone and wood with the lights at jaunty angles |
 |
| Stairs and elevators for between floors |
 |
| Coffe bar outside the meeting rooms |

Very pretty library! Looks like the kids enjoyed it too. Thanks for taking them.
