These days, it’s hard to find good libraries—but surprisingly, I discovered a beautiful one during my trip in Old Montreal. The staff were really kind, and the atmosphere was lovely.

Lovely bookstore that has many details that make a visit to this shop a unique experience. It is more remarkable since we see bookstores disappear. Thanks for the chair or two to skim through books; I did not feel any pressure to buy. The attendant was helpful when I asked about earth art books.
