Libraries are one of those concepts that sound very alien to today’s mentality “what do you mean free renting of copyrighted material without paying the owner company?!”
The library is one of the last free places in most cities.
They’ve really come a long way. The one near me has gaming rooms for computers now. Free DVD rental, there’s a tea lounge, etc.
Constantly reinventing themselves.
does anybody else remember before the computers lookup systems came how you could go to the library as a kid and say “I want to read about Egypt” and the librarian would walk you through the whole library pulling a dozen books off the shelves for you and giving you a summary of each book they suggest. it’s like they read every book in the library!
