The John Rylands Library (Deansgate) of The University of Manchester =)

我最近参观了曼彻斯特大学在Deansgate的约翰赖兰兹图书馆..当我走进该建筑的读书房,一种感觉吞没了我:辉煌壮观!i visited the John Rylands Library during a thursday in the reading week.. when i entered the Historic Reading Room of the building, one feeling engulfed me: Magnificent!




me and John Rylands =)



约翰赖兰兹图书馆在1972年和与曼彻斯特大学图书馆合并,形成曼彻斯特约翰赖兰兹大学图书馆(JRULM)。在Deansgate的约翰赖兰兹图书馆本身,是在19世纪90年代建造的,是在欧洲现代哥特式建筑的最佳范例之一 =)
"The John Rylands Library merged with Manchester University Library in 1972 to form the John Rylands University Library of Manchester (JRULM). The John Rylands Library building on Deansgate in the city centre houses the special collections of older material, and holds regular exhibitions based on its stock. The building itself, constructed in the 1890s, is one of the finest examples of modern Gothic architecture in Europe." (from http://www.culture24.org.uk/am19240)
