Across the street from Fabric Depot is the Midland Library. I'm a bit ashamed that I've never visited, so today I crossed at the crosswalk--where there was a flashing yellow sign to stop all the cars on busy 122nd Ave.--and discovered that I had never noticed there were quotes on the outside of the building.
Each quote began with a marker and the author of the quote was identified with the key at the bottom. Very good.
Inside it is light and beautiful. This is also a very large library. Outside of the Central Library, this may be the largest branch library I've visited in the Multnomah County System.
There is nothing quite as fun as exploring a 'new to you' library. Looks like a great one. And seriously, why doesn't everyone adopt the exclamation point?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteI've been there! When I lived way out on SE 83rd & Taylor, Midland was one of the closest libraries to me (another being Holgate Library, which is tiny). I don't remember those quotes being there though. Maybe they're new? Or maybe I just wasn't very observant.
