dont feel bad for using your local library and its services if you have a good local library system. literally use the hell out of its services if you can, it gives them justification to keep getting funding

even if you dont really like books (try audiobooks honey itll change your life) theres a ton of services libraries tend to have

my local library has crafting kits for people who wanna try out new crafts without committing to a giant hobby budget

Yeah. Going to the public library is one of the most #anticapitalist things any US citizen can habituate. If only I could ride a bus there. bc fuck cars, too.

@gavi you heard it here first, folks: libraries were invented by big library to sell more library

@gavi I’m excited that they’re building a new, state-of-the-art, library right down the street from us to replace an older one in our city. Our family is going to use the hell out of that library once it’s open.

Yup, as I was taught on a rugby referee courses, if the maul is not going anywhere, the ref can say 'use it or lose it'. The same goes for library and similar services.

Was in libraries while tripping on the country, just fun to sit in the different places but not in the room.

Also how understand some libraries have a common access to book sharing online, I mean own internet system and when you are registering then possible to connect to them and when you return continue the reading.
