Chicago Cultural Center, in the original Public Library Building |
On a recent trip to Chicago, I walked down Michigan Avenue past Millenium Park on my way to the Art Institute, and on the West side of the street I saw a large elegant building, inscribed along the top as the Chicago Public Library. No longer a library, it is now the Chicago Cultural Center. Built in 1897, it was the Central Library for the City of Chicago for 96 years, when a new library was built nearby.
I didn’t have time to visit the new library, but I was pleased to discover online that the catalogue lists 79 of my books, including my two new books PLANTING A GARDEN IN ROOM 6 and KEEPER OF THE LIGHT: JULIET NICHOLS FIGHTS THE SAN FRANCISCO FOG.
