temple

in
my edition of Webster defines athenaeum as =22any building or hall used as a
library or reading room=22. There are a number of distinguished athenaeums =
here

Hartford, and the Providence Athenaeum, but probably not too many in the =
Pacific
Northwest.
It's a noble, fitting word for a place where study and learning are
paramount.
