Здесь самые красивые библиотеки мира, которые успела найти, и библиотеки, сайтами которых я постоянно пользуюсь:
Библиотека Британского Музея, Библиотека Конгресса США и Нью-Йоркская Публичная Библиотека. Всем бы библиотекам такие сайты!

Библиотеки впервые появились на древнем Востоке. Обычно первой библиотекой называют собрание глиняных табличек, около 2500 года до н.э., найденное в Вавилоне.
Самая известная древневосточная библиотека - собрание клинописных табличек из дворца ассирийского царя Ашшурбанипала в Ниневии-VII века до н. э.
В одной из гробниц близ египетских Фив был обнаружен ящик с папирусами XVIII - XVII вв. до н.э. В эпоху Нового царства Рамзесом II было собрано около 20 000 папирусов.

After Daniel Dodd
Classical scholars gathered in a square before a partly constructed library, groups in the foreground engaged in discussion while examining a globe at left and using geometical tools at right, others behind painting, using balances, experimenting with a pendulum and listening a speaker; after Daniel Dodd, frontispiece to a "Cyclopedia". 1778

В древней Греции первая публичная библиотека была основана в Гераклее тираном Клеархом (IV век до н. э.).

Крупнейшим центром античной книжности стала Александрийская библиотека. Она была создана в III веке до н. э. Птолемеем I и была центром образования всего эллинистического мира.

Александрийская библиотека являлась частью комплекса , в него входили жилые комнаты, столовые помещения, помещения для чтения, ботанический и зоологический сады, обсерватория и библиотека. Позднее к нему были добавлены медицинские и астрономические инструменты, чучела животных, статуи и бюсты, которые были использованы для обучения. В музей (mouseĩon) входило 200 000 папирусов в Храме (почти все библиотеки античности были при храмах) и 700 000 документов в Школе. Музей и большая часть Александрийской библиотеки были уничтожены приблизительно в 270 году нашей эры.

В Средние века важную роль играли монастырские библиотеки, при которых действовали скриптории. Там переписывалось не только Священное писание и сочинения отцов Церкви, но и произведения античных авторов.

В эпоху Ренессанса деятели возрождения буквально, охотились за сохранявшимися в монастырях греческими и латинскими текстами. Из-за огромной стоимости манускриптов и трудоёмкости их изготовления книги приковывались к библиотечным полкам цепями.

=================Vatican Library===================
---------------------------------------------------------

Vatican Library

Pope Sixtus V commissioned the architect Domenico Fontana in 1587 to build a new, larger library, which stands today. The top floor of the building is occupied by the Sistine Hall, which is now part of the Vatican Museums. The richly frescoed hallway is lined with cabinets that for centuries held the library’s manuscripts, which are now housed in a separate but neighboring place in the Secret Vatican Archives, founded under Pope Paul V (1605-1621).

British Museum Reading Room
The British Museum Reading Room, situated in the centre of the Great Court of the British Museum, used to be the main reading room of the British Library. In 1997 this function moved to the new British Library building at St Pancras, London, but the Reading Room remains in its original form. Designed by Sydney Smirke on a suggestion by the Library's Chief Librarian Anthony Panizzi, following an earlier competition idea by William Hosking, the Reading Room was in continual use from 1857 until its temporary closure in 1997/
