An exhibition was held on the subject of sanctuary, and I immediately thought of libraries. A place to explore information, sit with your thoughts, do research, read a newspaper, peruse your favorite magazine and more recently even borrow tools for unusual projects. What could possibly define sanctuary more precisely?
