I think the new library is a different experience if you go when you are fresh and it is cool and there aren't a million and a half photographers (each with 4 suitcases of shit and a tripod blocking every path) and you don't have to pee.

It is freakin' huge and very confusing but it is amazing.

I did get a new PIN number so I can go online and tell them to hold any and all books I want and then just go and get them. I have a long list so this will work great.

But, I am beat to a pulp right now...

It was a pretty darn good experience yesterday anyways. Was it crowded at all today?
i'm hoping to pop in at lunch time one of the days this week.

You know, it really wasn't that crowded with people but it was all the darned photographers and their equipment - oh and baby strollers. The lines at the service counters were pretty long. But, it wasn't so bad, really. It was just confusing.

Yeah it is a bit confusing, Did they have the "Guided Tour" Screens going? Those were amusing. I still need to post my pictures of the event.

I didn't see anything that looked like a Guided tour screen...

I'm going to have to check it out (pun intended).

I live and die by the convenience of KCLS' electronic reservations system. At any time I have at least 20 holds. :-)

There was a piece about the new Seattle library in the May 24 New Yorker. Seems like a really interesting building. The critic (Paul Goldberger) really liked it.
