The Library, Pt. 1
I smudged my eyeliner
And spilled my tears on a hardcover
Forgive me, Simone de Beauvoir
I never meant to hurt you
I've scrolled through books of love and death
Kierkegaard y José Gasset...

The college that Betty went to was University of Washington in Seattle. The lecture hall that Simon presented at was "Balmer Hall". There used to be a building that was called that, but it was torn down. It did, however, look completely different. I thought this was a red herring until I looked up the library at the University of Washington, Suzzallo Library, and it is 1:1 to the one depicted in the show. Upon writing this I realized I should just post to Reddit but I barely post there so idk

i would love any pictures of udub’s campus/u-district you happen to take, as well as your thoughts on its atmosphere. i hope you enjoy your walking date!
Hi Anon,
I woke up this morning, and it was just pouring rain. Students are coming back to campus, and the mood was dreary, but 10,000 steps waits for no woman, and I figured I’d still try to take some pics of Washington’s campus and the UW Row (beyond beautiful) for you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
U-District is the University District. UW is in an urban setting (city of Seattle), so instead of having a college town around the campus, there’s a district. The Ave refers to the Avenue and the businesses that line it; there are bars, shops, restaurants, a theater, a light rail and bus station, and other nice spots. U-District (near the campus) is definitely geared towards the students.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Suzzallo Library. It’s located on Red Square, and the architecture is gorgeous. I think this is UW’s most recognizable building, and it’s huge with tourists. It was built in the collegiate gothic style, and it’s a gigantic building. The interior has stained glass, and it’s usually open to the public, but it wasn’t today. Allen Library is a part of Suzzallo Library and just as nice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the quad where the cherry blossoms bloom! It’s surrounded by different buildings (for example, the school of art), and it’s beautiful even in the rain. You can walk down to Drumheller Fountain, the IMA, University Village, Husky Stadium, and the University of Washington light rail station through Red Square, see Mount Rainier, and access most parts of campus through the quad. It’s also quite easy to walk through.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These are some of the row houses. There’s an extreme shortage of housing on campus and in Seattle, so if you do rush, you move into the house immediately, and it ends up being cheaper than living on or off campus. All of the houses are beautiful, large, and built with a lot of thought put into them, but these are my two favorites. The row is located directly across the street from the entrance of the school and directly up the road from U-District and there are a number of houses.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here’s the school of art and the school of drama. Both buildings are large, built nicely, and on opposite ends of campus. I was able to look inside both, and they’re filled with hardwood, stone, and stained glass. I think the older (more arts focused) buildings are gorgeous, and the newer science and engineering buildings are a bit more modern. The university has great architecture, and I’m always amazed by the size of UDub’s campus.
Here’s a video I took of Red Square early this morning.
Sorry for the bad pictures!!

okay so are we gonna talk about how fionna and cake's world is seattle? the library that simon and betty met at is a perfect dupe of suzzallo library on the university of washington seattle campus and the skyline of the city fionna is living in has the space needle in it. seattle lives rent free in simon's head.
this of course is then INCREDIBLY ICONIC that simon becomes ice king because the most common seattle social phenomenon is called "seattle freeze"

It is only well after I left college that I figured out the fun of finding reasons to 'research' things. The treasure hunt of digging for something not easily found online. I'm not creative (or curious) enough for this to come up often but am delighted when I get the chance to explore the depths of a library's offerings.
Tumblr media
It's also rewarding to chase down a tight run of connections. This week's has been Dicken's Fair -> a musical about "The Naming of Uranus" -> reading about historical lady mathematicians -> visiting the Suzzallo library -> getting to use the Micro Print machine!
I'm perhaps known amongst some friends for my love of pushing the printing limits in making mini books. Imagine my awe and delight at getting to hold a micro print page! Now THIS would make a tiny book!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
100 pages per sheet and absolutely not legible with the naked eye! Pages were brought into focus (on the digital screen) by panning the tray about. Not only easy to use, it made reading more fun! The book I wanted was actually missing the first sheet- thankfully there was a scanned copy I could read on a library machine -- interesting to see the aged pages in the 'digital' version, but I much preferred reading the micro print (even though it too was delivered to me 'digitally' at the end)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If I'd brought my Moment macro lens I could have taken some sweet photos (and read on my phone!) -- my new Pixel 8's macro mode just barely makes the text legible.
The initial bio on Mary Somerville I read mentioned that her writing was accessible and after reading a chunk of it for 20 minutes I heartily agree. Initially published in 1834, I'm sure there's a couple copies floating around out there (the library does have a physical copy, but it's at the off-site auxiliary and requires planning/advanced notice to get ahold of) -- makes me happy to now have a title to keep an eye out for in those rare bookshops/the collectables field.

In the book, the Suzzallo library on campus was described as being “musty” and their rooms as “dank” and like I can only imagine how awful that had to be for Bobby because I’m preeeetty sure those are triggers for asthma.

✨Welcome to the SUZALLO LIBRARY in Seattle, USA
Located on the University of Washington's campus in Seattle, the Suzzallo Library is a magnificent example of Collegiate Gothic architecture. With its grand reading room often likened to the hall of Hogwarts, it's a place where scholars and dreamers alike can immerse themselves in academic pursuits and literary wonder.
