European LIbrary shows interest in Seshat

Today I came across a news article about a library potentially closing down in Europe.  I thought it odd that the library would make a sort of religious stance and about the closing by calling it sacrilege. However, I did think that it was interesting that there are people out there who still hold value to the Seshat in a religious context.

In a statement the Trustees for the Library of Avalon said it regarded "all libraries as temples of the divine Djehuti...and believe that the destruction, desuetude or disestablishment of any library is on this basis tantamount to sacrilege." They added, the closure would also be sacrilegious to "the divine Maat, goddess of righteousness, correctness and order, and the divine Seshat, goddess of documentation; the Recording Angel."

This unusual library also displays collections from the Research into Lost Knowledge Organisation RILKO describes itself as: "An organisation providing a platform for the dissemination of hidden knowledge incorporated in myth and legend, number and geometry, art and music, architectural proportion, megalithic structures and the geomantic layout of cities and landscape".
