    Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library - 8.14.2023

    Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library

    On a bit of a roadtrip down the Connecticut coast, we arrived in New Haven a little after 3pm, and…read moreI knew I had only had a little time before things/attractions closed at 5pm. So after hitting the Yale Center for British Art, we speed walked (sped walked?) over to the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Why? Google it and you'll understand when you see the pictures. Beinicke is Yale's rare book and manuscript library - not their main university library or their law library. The reading room is open to registered researchers only, but the public are welcome to visit the library's exhibition hall. And everyone visiting New Haven should! The library was built in 1963, and the the architecture is incredible. The building is a granite veneer shell, fastened to a structural steel frame. Inside that structure is a glass-enclosed tower of book cases. The granite was milled to 1.25 inches thick to allow filtered daylight in - in the afternoon/early evening, the marble turned an amber color. We walked back past it at night for a different view of the building. It is really incredible architecture, and the library hosts exhibits you can see in the exhibition hall when you visit to enjoy the building (when we visited, the exhibit was "Taught By the Pen: The World of Islamic Manuscripts"). The building is incredible and definitely worth a visit if you're exploring the Yale campus!

    One of the largest collections of rare books and manuscripts. Rotating exhibits for the general…read morepublic. During my visit, it was testimonies from Holocaust survivors. The general public has limited access, and this will be a short stop for most people, depending upon the exhibit. Let's be honest--most people stop by for a photo op, for the architecture and the huge column of books. I got a few great photos, got to say I've seen it, and it's cool. Worthwhile. If you're in the area.

    The New Haven Free Public Library is a very cool building designed by Cass Gilbert of New York and…read morebuilt between 1908 and 1911. The colonial revival structure is set back from the street and blends in with the 19th century architecture, including that of the church on the green. As an adult, it brings back childhood memories of my fascination with the variety of the layout of the various rooms. Many things have been modernized, but just walking in and looking around at the magnitude of shelves and shelves of books still brings joy to my quest for learning something new every day.

    I have visited this library periodically over the last couple decades with my 2 children who are…read morenow in college and my 10 year old. Today was our 1st visit in about 2 years and we enjoyed reading, coloring, etc in the children's dept. They have a bunch of fun things on the schedule such as a graphic novel club, Madeline crafts, and today's story/nursery rhymes for the younger crowd. The staff in that dept was kind and informative. Bathrooms were clean. Now, the big surprise was when we went downstairs to leave and noticed a lot of cool things. We sat and used the 3-D pens for at least an hour... what fun! Coleen explained all kinds of things that are going on in this room... classes for using the 3-D printer, vinyl printer, wood, etc. Half of this room is designated for business... there are information sessions on how to start a business and many more helpful things to the new business owners.
