Red Chairs - State Library NSW

I was entranced, on a recent visit to see an exhibition of photos by Bondi Jitterbug George Caddy from the 1940's era, by the design features of both the modern and ancient aspects of the State Library. I managed to snap this pic of the reading chairs and the Dewey Decimal Card files before the Library Nazi came and hissed at me... I wasn't using flash, nor being noisy or obnoxious, or taking pictures of other guests - but I guess they haff RULEZ!

Dewey Decimal System

Remember this?? The card-board file system for finding out were books might be stored on the shelves in a Library... I didn't know these still existed, since the advent of Google. Nice to know an archaeological site like this has been preserved. State Library of NSW. Sydney Australia.
