Do you have a good public library where you live?  |
|
We moved a couple of months ago, and we only finally got to the public library yesterday to get our library cards. While we were there, we decided to look around for a bit, and ended up coming home with 9 books between the two of us. We mostly picked out graphic novels (comics), but I grabbed a few craft books as well. I think this is easily the best public library I have ever been to, and I'm very excited now that we have our library cards!
How is the selection at your public library? Do they have the kinds of books you like to read, or do they have a very disappointing selection?

1. eden32 (2986) | 3 years ago | Our local library has a great kids section. The adult section is a little lacking, but we're part of an inter-library program that you can find & reserve books online and pick them right up at the front desk.

2. inked4life (3357) | 3 years ago | We're very fortunate to have a really well stocked library 5 mnutes from our house. I've never gone there and walked out with less than 4 or 5 books and they have a really great kids section. I go there quite a bit when the kids are in school and just take along my laptop. I'll go through amazon and find books that I might find interesting and then see if the library has them

4. scarlet_woman (8849) | 3 years ago | it's gotten somewhat better over the years,but i'd say it's still lacking.they have a high problem with people not returning books,or them being damaged. they will order books special though sometimes if you ask them.

5. explorations (1520) | 3 years ago | I*wish* the library in my town was a good one! I moved here from the city, where the library was FABULOUS! Now, I'm craving something that resembles a good library. Where I live (in a really small town), the library is an old school house looking thing. It's cute and has that quaint village-like feeling . . . but . . . seriously, it needs to be better!!

6. freak369 (3482) | 3 years ago | Our library system is great. If they don't have something at our local branch we can have it ordered in from another one. They have DVD's, educational video games, movies from almost every genre and audio books. Not a lot of people think to check the library for such things, it saves a lot of money over renting movies at places like Blockbuster and Hollywood Video too.

7. huswyf (967) | 3 years ago | It can be a bit hit and miss but they will order something if you request it. What drives me nuts is that they often have part of a series of books and don't think for a minute you might want to read the others.

| 8. pnsoliveira1978 (57) | 3 years ago | I live in a medium size city (for Portugal, anyway) in the interior - Covilhã - and here we have one good public library and the university library which is almost public also, the general public just can't borough books to home.
