Russia's State Library is in Moscow. It is the largest library in Europe and the second largest library in the world. It is also Moscow's first public library. The library was built in 1862 and was called the Rumyantsev Library. Originally the library had contained the books from Count Nicolai Rumyantsev's book and manuscript collection. Those books were presented by his children. The library grew quickly, and thousands of books were given to the library by private collectors. In 1924 the library was renamed after Lenin and became the country's national library. At that time the main building of the library was founded. It took about twenty years to finish it. In 1992 the library was renamed again and became the Russian State Library. Nowadays there are thousands of ancient manuscripts and unique documents in the library, which are read by thousands of people every day

I knew that he was lying, but I fell for what he was saying, because I could tell he wanted to help the boy.
Once you go inside you should take off your hat.
He had a really hard time. He was in the hospital for almost a month. They thought he was going to die. But he pull through and now he’s completely healed.
