I am planning to build library in my village in Malaysia

Devil's hoof print, huh? Will have to remember that one that next time I ruin the finish on someone's table...

I visited Chetham as part of my library tour of Manchester one year (including John Rylands, Central Library and Portico). It's beautiful, but more of a museum now.

WOW! Extremely and unbelievable beautiful...Greetings from Argentina..

thanks! this library is simply amazing!

I'm English and building a library & art-gallery in Dolcedo, Liguria + I'm still writing the largest illustrated manuscript since Leonardo = 22 volumes & innumerable artworks.

Could not agree more. Absolute icon.

I was very interested in the bit about Dr John Dee. Not sure I believe his story about the Devil stamping his hoof on the table but I do own the 1661 edition of Euclid's Elements of Geometry which has a Preface written by Dee.

Wow that's quite special

0:55 Chicken wire over the books. I dont trust chickens in libraries either. Well done.

Was the film adaptation of M. R. James' story "The Tractate Middoth" filmed in this library?

Great video. I live in Australia and am now too old to travel to the UK so thanks for posting this - and remembering Chetham. Such a good man.

We must defend our history.

No chance... Your history, your country has long belonged to the Pakistanis...

Fantastic
