Dublin - Trinity College Library by Irish Welcome Tours on Flickr.
Aside from being absolutely gorgeous, with two story dark wooden arches, this is also the largest library in all of Ireland. It serves as the country’s copyright library, where a copy of all new books and periodicals must be sent when they apply for copyright protection. The library is also home to the famous Book of Kells, an illuminated manuscript created by Celtic monks around the year 800.

These results suggest that these black holes have a mechanism for regulating the rate at which they grow.—-Erratic Black Hole Regulates Itself
