As I wrtie this, I am in the library of Fieldstone Secondary School. This library was a building on the Letchworth Village campus. It was rebfurbished along with many of the other buildings. As "Hi" previously said, it is very scary to know that your school used to be an inasne asylum!!

That's probably armoured glass, with one or more layers of strong plastic laminated into it (like any car's windshield) and it's absolutely safe even if it's cracked
