358th day of 2016.
Grand Library of the Palace had two floors, I really love the design of double height libraries.
Lower Floor accessible to all and also act as a waiting room for visiting officials. In the scenario that their topic of discussion require a lot of references to books.
Upper Floor tends to be more private studies. With entrance and connection to various places. Most prestigious is to access the Royal Grand Study, flanked by both sides by study hall for higher rank officials and nobles. Directly opposite the Grand Study is the access straight to the Forum, where internal meeting is held that required a lot of seats and book references.
