The library. The first time I got a real tour of this place I was overwhelmed. It just keeps going on and on and on and has just about everything you can imagine. Sure, there is now the internet to compile all of this information in a transportable form and that can be accessed from anywhere, but just to ponder on the fact that thousands of people took the time to write all of these books is mind boggling. An avid believer that magazines will not die because of the internet, I am a true fan of print if there ever was one. In fact, one of my favorite parts of this library, and a place I intend to thoroughly explore is the magazine archive in the basement (pictured here) which has every issue of Vogue ever published. Don't ask me how I plan to find the magazine aisle again, but I will eventually.
