Steve,
Great photos! The rooms look very um vacant. Were you there in an “off-time” or is the library just normally a very quiet place?
Janice
Hi Janice,
The reason the library looks vacant is that I had permission to take pictures of the library but not the people. I ran into the same situation at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. So, in both cases, I restricted my photographs to places in the library devoid of people at the time I took the picture. There were pleny of people in other places.
