The most innovative libraries around the world

they achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.

Beach Library (Albena, Bulgaria)

Reading a book on the beach is a classic, and in Bulgaria, one library encourages tourist to do just

reach both in distance and the titles they carry.

spots for study groups and lively discussions.

Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)

Timothy was exhausted for he worked extended hours. Although earning a low wage and handling

ill-mannered customers, he always put serving those who sat are his tables well on the front burner of

his mind He went about his daily duties carefully, putting on a smiling face as customers complained

about the food or questioned the bill.

Usually as night deepen preparing to close the business, he would notice a couple of customers

walk in, sit down and order drinks. Most of the crew had left by closing time, but Timothy stayed to

serve. Eventually, the last round was ordered and be gave them the bill. The minimum tip was suggested

But luck wouldn’t always smile on him. Evening approaching, a group of teenagers stepped in.

Time dragged on and they finished their drinks. He placed the bill on the table, accompanied with

table, he was astonished. A tip of $3 was sitting there, staring at him, but their total bill amounted to

$100. He’d gone above and beyond to serve them. How could they be so rude?

Later that week, he battled to brush off the awkward memories. He arrived at work and expected it

to be like any other day, but there was something left on the desk for him, a two-page handwritten letter

from the teenagers with $18 attached, in which they explained they were unaware of how to tip

pizza — isn’t good for our health. Studies have found they can raise our risk of obesity, heart problems,

diabetes and cancer. They may even shorten our lives. Now, a new study has revealed eating more ultra-

processed foods may contribute to overall cognitive decline, including the brain executive functioning
