The 10 most beautiful libraries in the world
The Library of Trinity College Dublin is named the most beautiful library in the world by 200,000 voters in the 1000 Libraries Awards 2025.
📚 Libraries come in all shapes and sizes, and are valued for different reasons, but there's several here I'd like to visit, can tick 1 & 7 off the list so far!
