They saved my bacon by actually having a copy of the book .You almost feel like you are stepping back in time when you go in .The staff ( mainly retired folk when I went) were lovely, happy to chat and have a laugh. You won't get the choice you can expect from nearby Amersham as there are few books here but nevertheless it is a community resource which should not be allowed to disappear.I should imagine it is also a great social meeting point for the village.

Even when bookstores are crowded and full of energy, they still carry that classic charm that reminds you of how real bookstores used to feel before everything became generic. Helping bookstores and authors grow through authentic promotion and marketing is something I truly enjoy because every book deserves the right audience and visibility.

The library in Marlow has a great central location, just of the High street. It isn't huge, but I…read morewould say it is big enough for the needs of Marlow. There is a range of both factual and fictional books. And a large variety of DVD's including lots of new titles and some great box-sets (it works out much cheaper then the Blockbusters, and you can keep them for a week). There are also lots of CD's from a variety of genres. There is a big children's section and I believe they put on children's activities. There are also about 5 computers, where you can pay to use the internet, and also you can get free wifi if you bring along your laptop.

We enjoyed roaming the floors during an unexpected rain shower, and enjoyed all the historical tomes exhibited here. We did not sign up for cards, and therefor did not get to explore the rooms or stacks, but we did enjoy our walk around. During college (as a history major), it was frequently joked that you haven't really researched in a library if you haven't wound up making out in the stacks... well, after a day of research, I enjoyed some fun pictures and 'making out' with my husband, making this a thoroughly educational stop in our London adventure.

If you plan on seeing any of the actual exhibits or checking out the areas that actually house the books, you'll need to sign up for one of their cards. I also can't really imagine getting much work or studying done here. It can be pretty difficult to find a seat and it's so loud and busy that you may be better off going somewhere else.

The rich history of the library was captivating, and the stunning architecture of the buildings was not to miss. Natasha, our tour guide, was an absolute gem! She guided us through the majestic halls and took us behind the scenes, explaining the lavish history along the way, always with a warm smile. Her enthusiasm for the library was palpable, and her extensive knowledge made the tour even more fascinating. One of the highlights was seeing the Duke Humfrey's library. Such a beautiful and historic building with crests of the University of Oxford covering the ceiling, and Kings, Queens, and Bishops along the aisles. The Radcliffe Camera and The Divinity Schools were not to miss as well. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Oxford.
