An exceptional library at an exceptional college, the Meem Library at St. John's is one of the best resources for the Liberal Arts in all of the Southwest. Reflecting the college's focus on deep engagement with primary and foundational texts of Western Culture, the library's collection (around 65,000 volumes) is comprehensive and elegant, balancing the beauty of curated secondary material and depth of primary text (in original language and translation). Their classics collection is just stunning. It's a quiet environment that encourages deep study and contemplation. Note that the wifi is often sluggish, which seems a good thing, directing attention back to the physical beauty of the book and the written word. There is the Borgesian Myth of the Great Bookstore in the Desert, a place that will endure the apocalypse, with illuminated and chained books preserving the quintessence of Western Culture; the Meem Library is about as close as you will get to the realization of that sweet myth.
