Follow the links here to see some pictures to gladden the hearts of booklovers, and while one or two of these are familiar, most are new - to me at least. So, what do a Dominican cathedral in Maastricht, a 'rainbow room' in Beijing and a theatre in Buenos Aires have in common? They are all bookshops!
And having had your fill there, now look at the libraries! Scroll down for the delightful library of picture books in Japan, though readers of a nervous disposition may want to avoid the poor Russian library at the bottom of the page - it's a sad sight.
