A Roman library, believe it or not contained books. Most libraries were dual rooms or buildings with books in Greek on one side and those in Latin on the other. The ancient books, though, were not in the form that we have today. They were in scrolls, sometimes many scrolls made up a book. They were kept together in leather buckets in niches in the walls.
