Look at all this beauty, we love libraries... luckily its our job to work with them and see to all of their digitizing needs.
With our scanners, the books can be at your fingertips at all times.
This is the Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar, Germany, which preserves materials ranging from the 9th to the 21st century. It's just one of the many houses of knowledge that photographer Robert Dawson shot for his upcoming book, which documents a staggering array of libraries from the mundane to the spectacular. "Libraries are especially useful in this moment, because they’re open to everybody," Dawson says. "They can be a way for us to talk to each other. Throughout the world, they’re symbols of hope."
