"[...] pots were brought to the site and cut, so as to be open at both the top and bottom. the pots were then cast into the concrete ceiling to create holes for light and ventilation. [...] a rectangular corrugated iron roof sits above this ceiling and extends out beyond the library [...] as the metal roof heats up it draws the air from inside the library up and out through the holes in the roof, ensuring a comfortable rate of air circulation."
