A remodel for the books

Imagine buying the house next door, turning the neighboring house into a personal library, and connecting it to your house with an atrium.  What you'd end up with would be something like this:
I learned about this bibliophile's dream over at Book-A-Rama's place.  This screen capture isn't very sharp, but you get the idea.  Click on this Minneapolis StarTribune link to see photos of the two houses before and after they were connected.  (The story was published on August 21.)

I don't collect books anymore as I use the library exclusively. I give away any book I buy so I am done to maybe 50 books in my possession and they have sentimental value.
