RE: The amazing uneducated/self-educated Abraham Lincoln!
I appreciate the comments, Roger.

As a follow-up, the Illinois State Library has had five locations. The Old State Capitol was the first; the current location is across the street, to the east, from the current Illinois Statehouse.

Also, the public library of Springfield, which was established well after Lincoln's death, is called Lincoln Library. It is not to be confused with the Presidential Library or other entities.

Lincoln Library is located just north of the Lincoln Home National Historic Site. I've spent many hours there, and love the place. The edge of the Lincoln home neighborhood is just across the street, to the south.
