The New Illumination Library

It was with unexpected pleasure that I heard from Xinoxi Han recently and learned that the Illumination Library and Opera House has been reopened and moved to a new sim.  There are two library buildings, a main library and a smaller Annex, both containing a highly-detailed collection of world literature and history in a beautiful setting.  There is also a teleport map to other locations on the property including the Opera House where events will be scheduled and the new Biblio Shop where books and other library and home decorating items can be purchased.  All proceeds from the shop and the donation boards in front of the library, go toward tier costs and programming

The Library's SL group is the Second Life Literary Foundation.  Members will receive notices about updates to the collections and events.  There is also a library card catalog near the entrance to the Main Library that lists titles included in both buildings.  The collection includes several hundred interactive books in audio, full-text, and page-turning formats.  An touch giver by the library gives out an information notecard as well as a small gift to visitors.

For questions or suggestions, contact Xinoxi Han, Director or Farzaneh Eel, Librarian & Bookmaker.
