My Library, your library, our history

Murals on the exterior walls of the library feature blocks of colour, rectangular and geometric, where books are shown in heaving, leaning stacks. Artist McRae refers to a quote from author Sophie Mayer who describes a library as a place where, ‘Each person is pursuing their own aim (education, entertainment, affect, rest) with respect to others, through the best possible medium of the transmission of ideas, feelings and knowledge: the book.’
