This post is for all of our readers who love to read books as well as our blog. We came across these fabulous photos of some gorgeous home libraries recently on Architectural Digest. For anyone who is passionate about reading, a home library is an essential, as it offers up the perfect place to display their collection of books, as well as a quite place to read, study, or even serve a dual purpose as a home office.

These elegant libraries will certainly inspire your thoughts of how you would like your own home library to look!

We love the architectural detailing in this library.
