The circular dome and drum of the Radcliffe Camera is one of Oxford's most distinctive landmarks.
The building is one of Oxford University's libraries and has two reading rooms, used primarily by undergraduates. The Upper Reading Room holds books on History, Art, Archaeology, and Anthropology, while the Lower Reading Room is focussed on English Literature and Theology.
A bookstore, holding some 600,000 books in underground rooms, lies under Radcliffe Square beneath the lawn to the north of the Camera and is linked by tunnels with the Old Library.
What an interesting building and read up. Boy my husband would go nuts to see the underground library with it's 600 000 books. thanks so much for sharing.
