Mythic libraries

[shewhomust]

The recent Doctor Who two-parter Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead is only the latest in the list of libraries to make your mind reel. The labyrinth in The Name of the Rose, the library of the Unseen University with its chained books (and unchained Librarian), the library of Dream in Sandman, where Lucien presides over a collection of all the books anyone has ever dreamed of writing - and there are some more dream libraries here.

But the library of Baghdad is real.
