Libraries

As soon as humans developed systems of writing, they faced a problem. What to do with all of the things that were written down? 

If you were going to document the lives of kings or tax records, then you need to be able to reference these details at some later date. 

The solution to the problem was the creation of repositories for documents. While they have changed dramatically over time, the same basic institutions are still with us today. 

Learn more about libraries and how they changed over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
