Nov. 2nd, 2007 02:01 pmHappy 30th birthday to the Toronto Reference Library!
Back when I was in high school, before the Web took half the challenge out of research, the Reference Library was the place I went to work on school projects. You could (and still can) find just about anything there. I didn't realize at the time that it was younger than I am; obviously the decor suggested it, but the place just gave such a sense of rightness, of Always Having Been There.
I still end up there at least twice a year -- sometimes, it's the only place in Toronto to find what you need to know.
So Happy Birthday, TRL, and thank you. Long may you reign.
