THE library is in the upper story, and consists of a large hall, a gallery, and fix other rooms. The manuscripts take up one apartment, where they are locked up in book cases; and the printed books are about 60,000. The keeper of this library has a perpetual permission from the pope for reading, sine scandalo, all prohibited books. (English)
