Pyeolmadang Library @ Seoul.

A library with a multi-level, open-ceiling structure approximately 13 meters high.

A section featuring a collection of 70,000 books plus e-books you can read on your iPad.

I was watching, wondering, "How do they manage the loans?" but,

As expected, it seems you can't check items out; instead, it's a system where you can read them freely on the spot without going through any formalities.

There is indeed a corner where you can relax and read, and

It was the kind of place where you could easily spend the whole day.

I’ve always liked visiting libraries, but,

From now on, I plan to make a point of visiting the library even more than I have in the past.
