Koerner Library, UBC

Tuesday afternoon I had to go to a meeting on the other side of campus; I took advantage of the great weather to walk, and captured this on the way back. A good thing, as it had clouded over by the time I headed home from work for the day and my desire to seek some more shots had evaporated. That as well may have been a good thing, as I discovered on my return home that my apartment had been broken into during the day, again, and the kitchen window (entry) and glass door (exit) were both open. If I'd stayed out for more pictures it could have been several hours later when I returned home, with the window and door open for anyone else to help themselves in the meantime. I suppose I should be happy that the miserable little low-lifes only took a few things (less than the last time) and insurance should cover most of the loss, but it's really a pain in the butt nevertheless.

As for the photo, it's a little different that my usual subject. I've not been much impressed by the design of this building, or not until I got a chance to see what they're doing to the Main Library... Maybe Main will look better when they're finished the renovations, but at the moment I'm skeptical. In the meantime, it's made the Koerner Library look almost nice.
