As a former devoted user of this library, I was especially struck by the recent appearance of these visual reports, and they may be of interest likewise to others of you here. Upon reopening next week ( on 20 September ), the place will have installed wifi access, will have apparently become fully RFID-compliant, etc. The AP video on the newly restored and refitted *Vatican Library* is at : http://www.mefeedia.com/news/32813063 and http://news.yahoo.com/video/world-15749633/vatican-library-reopens-after-3-year-restoration-21881418 There's a, different but nice, Youtube one at : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HgmTZkMu_k And here's yet another good one from NTDTV at : http://english.ntdtv.com/ntdtv_en/ns_europe/2010-09-14/017420107450.html The BBC slideshow is at : http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11288225 On the reopening, see also e.g. : http://www.vaticanlibrary.va/home.php?ling=eng and http://www.oecumene.radiovaticana.org/en1/Articolo.asp?c=422245 - Laval Hunsucker Breukelen, NederlandReceived on Tue Sep 14 2010 - 11:50:17 EDT
