Sleeping in the library
It was 1889 that British Prime Minister William Gladstone began moving his book collection from Hawarden Castle in Wales to a new building less than a mile away. The new building is now known as Gladstone's Library. His intention was to offer it as a "residential" library where patrons could stay overnight and take meals. It still operates in that manner today.
