	cityofsound: Swiss Cottage Library
		Swiss Cottage Library was designed by Sir Basil Spence (Coventry Cathederal, University of Sussex, British Embassy in Rome etc) and built from 1962 to 1964, alongside a now demolished swimming pool (the plans were actually for a whole new civic centre for Hampstead - ditched when Camden took over the borough).
		The central atrium is the heart of the building, conceived as an exhibition foyer extending through two floors.
		Since the library re-opened to the public in April 2003, lending increased by a massive 40 per cent from May to December of last year, compared with the same period the year in 2002, before the library was restocked.

	Robert Browning (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		A lengthy confessional poem, it was intended by its young author to be merely one of a series of works produced by various fictitious versions of himself (the poet, the composer etc.), but Browning abandoned the larger project.
		Published under Browning's own name, in an edition financed by his father, the poem was a small commercial and critical success and marked his induction into London literary society.
		When his first new work in nine years, Dramatis Personae, was published in 1864, Browning's reputation was undergoing a critical and popular re-evaluation; a collected edition of his poetry published the previous year had sold reasonably well, as had a number of volumes of selected poems.

	ALA \| Britain Launches Campaign to Transform Libraries’ Image
		Managers of the three libraries—Newquay Library in Cornwall, Coldharbour Library in Gravesend, and the Central Lending Library in the London borough of Richmond—will have 12 weeks to undertake a “hothouse transformation” in which designers and space planners will renovate the interiors while publishing marketing experts will offer advice on services.
		At the kickoff of the campaign at Swiss Cottage Library in northwest London, Lammy fielded questions about the government’s neglect of libraries—stocks have dropped from 105 million a decade ago to 84 million—and reports that a number of libraries are likely to close this year, the London Times reported March 23.
		The effort to revamp libraries’ image seems an uphill one: BBC News observed March 22 that only one in five adults has visited their local library, some 15% think that libraries are places for “pensioners or people to keep warm,” and 54% think there is no good reason to visit their local library.
