Alberto Alessi
A library is an active source of ideas and opportunities that connects me with people who are far away or who lived in other eras. It is a low-tech time machine. Browsing the open shelves in the library of the University of Liechtenstein repeatedly surprises me with unexpected “good-neighbourhood” discoveries and enables me to share these findings with others. The library is the place of surprises."
