Williamsburg Regional Library, Williamsburg, Virginia






This is the Scotland Street branch of the Williamsburg Regional Library, which just celebrated its 100th birthday.  It has developed a beautiful campus for the more than 380,000 books, videos and other media the system maintains for public use.  From top to bottom is a court yard with statue; books in a carrying strap statue; an open book statue; and, a statue of George Washington outside the entry way to the library.

    The court yard statue is called an armillary sundial.
