And now into the kidz area...
Interesting shelf accoutrements...
My apology to the person, but often I didn't want to take the time for the perfect shot. So here they're unidentifiable... but the point was to get a shot of a modern bookshelf & ladder arrangement.
Workroom in the kidz area. The two items on the table are apparently backlit.
This is a common computer setup throughtout the library.
Don't recall whether this is circulation, or reference, or both.
This is the materials return conveyor belts. On the other side of the wall, patrons are slipping books and such through the slots, which then ride the conveyor belt around and down to the basement for sorting. There are two similar setups shown here.
The monitors above the employee tell who is next up for service. With the "i" in the background, this must be the Information Desk for patrons.
This device assigns you a waiting number for service. One then sits on the lounge furniture until their number is displayed on the LED monitor above the library employee's station.
The glass sliding doors stack as seen here when the library is open for business. They unstack at the close to form a barrier to entry.
Rendering of the exterior of the library. City square off to the right.
Time to try the Blue Cheese Chicken. You don't have to look very hard to see the bottom layer of small potatoes.
80 Krona for a large portion, as pictured above.
Where it came from.
And for dessert, fudge from the Brits.
One piece of fudge was too much sugar. So, off to dilute the stomach with some Thai food.
Never ate any Australian BBQ. Just amused with their signage...
When you have too many people getting drunk at your end of summer party, you re-invent the get-together as "Culture Fest". Four min stages with free shows for the public, stationed up and down the main boulevard.
As if a Coke doesn't contain enough sugar. Here it's paired with a Snickers for sale at a convenience store. Probably less sugar though than one piece of British Fudge.
Your Slurpee selection at a Swedish 7/11.
Outdoor, cafe-type seating at a Swedish 7/11.
View from the bridge of one of the canals.
Tent cities set up in the parks for various exhibitors.
Sailboats traversing the canal, foreground and background.
One of the four stages erected by the city for the fest, with skit presently underway on the stage. Good attendance!
The dialogue was in Swedish.
A Miniature Golf course in the park.
The City Card also had a free admission to Liseberg, Sweden's largest amusement park, which I walked thru at dusk.
And for parents and grandparents, a concert.
I turned the contrast to minimum here so the detailing on the gears would be more apparent.
