On 28 April 1986 there was a fire at Los Angeles Central Library that burned for seven hours and destroyed thousands of books. Susan Orlean, award
On the morning of April 29, 1986, a fire alarm sounded in the Los Angeles Public Library. As the moments passed, patrons and staff outside of the building realized this was not the usual fire alarm. As one fireman recounted, Once that first stack got going, it was 'Goodbye, Charlie.' The fire was disastrous, reaching 2000 degrees and burning for more than seven hours. It consumed four hundred thousand books and damaged seven hundred thousand more.
