Library Camp

A camp community focused on libraries and digital archiving (and access) technology.

This is actually a really good question.

At what point did so many libraries in America become institutions to push woke agendas?

It's become so normalized for them to cherry pick which books to display on the shelfs and tables, host LGBTQ events, encourage non-citizens to sign up for a variety of government programs, and fight against ICE.

Wouldn't it be nice if our libraries returned to putting full focus on simply providing a quiet place to work and study?

"Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies." THIS is WHY I am creating a Legacy Library of must-have books for my family. No telling what they're going to scrub and suppress.

Should you ever be accused of being untidy, show them this photo of the offices of the New York Review of Books.

A cliffside bookstore has been built inside a massive limestone sinkhole in Guangxi China.

Set in the Mianhua Tiankeng it sits inside a karst collapse feature formed over thousands of years as underground caves eroded and caved in leaving sheer vertical limestone walls.

Bookshelves and walkways are built directly into the rock face with the natural geology still dominating the space layered limestone steep drops and a huge hollow basin carved by water over time.

This little illuminated dragon is very happy about Pretext. He's too busy having fun to care about people's "hot takes" on how "it's not that special."

(This little dragon also only works on desktop right now but maybe I'll do mobile later)

@thestustustudio It's nice that she has her books sorted by color though.

Baruch Spinoza lived quietly, earned his living by grinding lenses, and avoided fame as carefully as others chased it. Excommunicated from his community for his ideas, he refused university positions and royal patronage alike, choosing independence over recognition. He believed that God and nature were one and the same, and that freedom came from understanding necessity. He died young, at 44, presumably poor, calm, and intellectually uncompromising.

Calm evening
