In this final episode, Br. Cyril and Pat share the fascinating history of the Abbey Library, designed by famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto and built on the side of the Abbey Hill. Hear about when Duke Ellington played music for the opening reception, the medieval manuscripts collection, and how the Library fits into the monks' charism of hospitality.
