Things to do in New Mexico, United States: The Best Libraries
With its rich cultural heritage from Native American and Spanish settlers, New Mexico has been both a Spanish colony and a Mexican colony, and still retains a strong individual identity within the United States. The landscape is breathtaking, the food incredible, and there is a thriving cultural scene, all of which makes New Mexico, and Santa Fe in particular, a great place all year long.

I love this library because it reminds me of the Carnegie Library in Gloversville, New York where I grew up. There is reading room with books with western and New Mexico themes. This is a very special place. If I go to Las Vegas, it is usually on weekends. So, I wish they would expand their weekend hours.

Ernie Pyle was a great American writer and war correspondent. The Library which is actually the only home he ever owned is a fascinating ode to Ernie and his wife. A great stop for any WWII historians or Americana aficionados.
