Thomas Jefferson's Library
For all you book lovers here is a link to an interesting article. For the past decade, a group of rare book experts have been recreating to Thomas Jefferson's library. The entire collection of more than 6,000 volumes will go on display tomorrow at the Library of Congress, looking much as it would have 200 years ago. One of the things that I found interesting was that Jefferson built his library in a U shape so that when you walked into the room you would be surrounded by books!
