A Look at the Vatican Library

This is probably the ultimate library in all existence. The Vatican Library contains over 2 million pieces, some dating back thousands of years. I’ve read about wonderful libraries that are hidden in monasteries around the world, but this tops them all I’m sure. According to the piece, only one person is allowed to check out anything at this library – The Pope.

Thanks to CBS News and 60 Minutes for doing this story. Here’s the accompanying video.
