What kind of person besides bums and public masturbators ever goes to a library that isn't some sort of odd research library?

Librarians are a dying breed because they are utterly unnecessary except to keep out the masturbators but not the bums.

Libraries are great places to read or get some studying done. You have to bring your own books, though, because their selection is typically inadequate.

there is usually a crowd of around 8-10 of them outside at 9am sharp, ready for the library to open. one time i saw an old woman eat something from the trash bin outside as she was waiting on a cold day

I love the library because I hate paying for books. Interlibrary Loans mean if I'm willing to wait for it for a few weeks, I can read just about anything for free!

Also, my local library checks out video games! :iia:

Librarians are a dying breed because they are utterly unnecessary except to keep out the masturbators but not the bums.

They usually have lots of books and educational activities for kids.

if you find an open library anymore, the UK authorities shut nearly all of them and told us to "go to a bookstore, not that you people need to read"

Buy a cheap old reader for a tenner and download a poo poo tonne of books on it. It's that easy.

dude little kids like to hang around in a circle and sing songs and have books with bright colors read to them by nice people. they don't need to stay inside a squalid goonhut and squint at some black and white poo poo on a broken old kindle while some goony gently caress tries to decipher the words on the screen.
