Shhhhhhhh


The Linn-Henley Library was once the Birmingham Public Library and I spent many an evening there doing research for term papers  ( meeting high school friends).  Since 1984, when a more contemporary library was built on 21st Street, it has been designated as a research facility. Thankfully Birmingham still has this beautiful place that has been so beautifully restored.

So glad it has been restored and is in use!!! It's a gorgeous building!!! I'd much rather go here to do research than a bleak, modern building!!!

It is a wonderful facility, Virginia. Birmingham has been wise to preserve and restore it.
