The Challenge Factory discussion

In 2025, we will go on a tour of the most famous libraries in the world. They might be ancient or modern, but they were and are spectacular!

You only need to read one book for one task to receive a library card to the library of the month. You are welcome to read for as many tasks as you'd like though.

Rules:
Books must be at least 140 pages.
Audio books must be at least 3 hours long.

The Trinity College Library, fondly called the Long Room, is the largest library in Dublin, and responsible for many of the same functions for Ireland that the Library of Congress fulfills for the United States.

Though the library actually consists of four separate buildings, the Old Library, built in 1592, is among Ireland's biggest tourist attractions, home to the historic Book of Kells, a Gospel book created by Celtic monks roughly around 800 AD.

It is also home to six million other printed works, including manuscripts, music, journals, maps, and special collections.
