which is on 36th Street between Park and Madison, is a big complex of connected buildings,
The original Library building , shown here, built about 1900, is just the entrance. The complex includes a four storey atrium with natural lighting, the better to look at manuscripts-- the museum specializes in manuscripts, but has a lot else to offer as well. Check out their website...
The maunscripts, by the way, range from medieval illuminated ones to scraps of paper Bob Dylan used to write down lyrics of "Blowin' in the Wind," and "It Aint Me Babe."
WRIST UPDATE: Cast comes off in a week and then they'll put something on wrist and schedule me for physicall therapy. Hope to be in shape to visit my sister and her family on Cape Cod at the end of July/beginning of August.
