Created by Christine Borden of Steamboat Springs, CO, the carved wood panels above the bookshelves in the local history room and on the main level were created on a Mac computer using Adobe Illustrator and then laser-cut into cherry veneer. On the main floor, the design was inspired by a quote from Shakespeare that celebrates the power of the printed word to bring meaning to the reader and Rumi's invitation to "drink your fill". The use of international scripts highlights the beauty and commonality of language across cultures. The local history room features a Ute Indian poem with an abstracted illustration of the Yampa River as it flows through Steamboat Springs.
