Second floor · Always open to guests

Vinyl Library.

Four thousand records, a listening chair, and headphones that cost more than the chair. Pull anything. Take it upstairs.

VL-1 Still · 21:9 The shelving wall, floor to ceiling, ladder in frame, warm shelf light.

No glass cases, no white gloves. The collection is here to be played — in the listening chair, on the deck in your room, or over the system at The Duke if you can talk the bartender into it.

VL-2 Still · 3:2 The listening chair — one person, headphones on, eyes closed.

The chair

One seat, no queue system

The stacks

4,000 and counting

How it works

Browse. Borrow. Bring it back.

Browse

The stacks are open to all house guests, sorted by feel rather than strict alphabet. Ask the librarian where anything is.

Borrow

Up to three records at a time to your room — every room has a deck. Swap as often as you like.

The core

Jazz is the spine — big band through hard bop and beyond — ringed by soul, funk, gospel, and a serious classical shelf.

New arrivals

A crate of recent pressings lands monthly. The librarian's picks sit face-out by the door.

VL-4 Still · 3:2 The librarian at the desk, or the face-out picks shelf by the door.

This month

The librarian's picks.

Five records, chosen monthly, with a handwritten card on each. Titles TK — wire this block to the library's own list.
