Anyone who loves books has a fondness for libraries but few of us have a sense of their infinite variety. Diane Ass+(c)o Griliches has photographed libraries all over the world from the grand reading room in the Biblioth+ que Nationale in Paris to the humble remodelled train depot that serves as the library in Cleveland Mississippi. Libraries are inhabited by books and people. Diane Griliches has photographed not only the magnificent walls of books and tables full of students at the Biblioteca Marucelliana in Florence and the library in Sarajevo which has since been destroyed but also the homeless seeking shelter children using their library cards for the first time patient librarians lovers in the stacks and a wealth of other human dramas that take place inside libraries.
