Library of Imagination September 13, 2010 By Ben and Ben

Our library would have one floor. It would have glass book cases in a circle around the centre. Where there would be a large computer that held a huge historic database. Right beside the database computer there would be a hot tub. In the computer there would be digital versions of all the old books in the library. Each book case would have a touch screen on the front were you could read how to safely handle the books inside and enter a code to open the book case. Walls and ceiling would be bulletproof glass and one way tinted. There would be alarm systems and video cameras watching inside and outside the library viewed by the database computer. The ceiling has a telescope built in so that you could view space form the database computer.

Our library would contain:
 * The Wright brothers flying machine. We think we should have this machine because it was the first stable flying device.

 * Da Vinci's sketches of the human body. We think we should have Da Vinci's sketches because they gave us great understanding of our muscular system, bones and internal organs.

 * The Hubble telescope. We would have this in our library because it let's us look into other galaxies billions of light years away.

Top Three Library of Imagination Artifacts My top three artifacts from all of the libraries of imagination would be: the Wright Brothers flying machine, fireworks and the computer. If I had a fourth it would be the unicorn! I chose the Wright Brothers flying machine because it appeared in almost every library and it was what air planes today evolved from. Fireworks because it would take someone with a huge imagination to transform a powerful weapon into a rocket that makes colourful designs in the sky. I would pick the computer because it advanced us into a new technological age. Those are my three top picks out of all the libraries of imagination.
