A library in a drab double-wide - its stacks of books available in 16 languages, including Arabic and Chinese - is among the perks U.S. military officials promote as they seek to put a friendlier face on the controversial camp, which has been the subject of international protests over the detention and treatment of detainees.

...A military officer/librarian makes the rounds to the cells of more than 400 men who are housed in small, stark cellblocks ringed by fences topped by barbed wire.

"If we're late, they're bugging the guards," one librarian said of the detainees, whose tastes are said to favor Arabic poets and British mysteries. Harry Potter is also said to be a favorite.
