How often do you visit your local library?

I usually go to Value Village to buy books. For 1-5 dollars I can own a nice hard copy.

I've been 2 times in the last 3 days. At least once every 2 weeks.

I haven't been in years.I just buy the books I want/interest me on sight.

 

[humpasaurus rex]

Never, I owe them $40. LOL I need to pay that, lost a book 5 years ago. The library has cut their hours like crazy tho around my way. 11AM-7PM, +%$ Florida must have cut back on the budget.

My mother is a director of a public library in RI and she is always trying new/different things to attract people to the library. It's amazing how many people have never even been to their local library. As one poster said, they would rather buy a book then borrow it for free. You can even check out DVDs (new releases) as well. IMO the library is a fundamental resource for public service. That is if it is run properly. Personally I know a ton of libraries are filled with unhelpful old women who don't seem to care about their patrons. If the librarians were more involved with the community through library-held programs and more face to face interactions with their visitors more people would come to realize how important public libraries really are (even with technology taking over the need for books).

the what

 

[dipsetgeneral]

The last time I went to the local library was last Friday.

I wanted to print out a shipping label for Chegg.com (The semester is over, So I am returning the books.)

Before that, the last time I visited the local public library was like 2004

At least once a week.  Our library lets you access academic databases from home with your library barcode, but with Christie and all these budget cuts it might get axed.

Yup, plus some of the books in the library are nasty as hell. 

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

all of a sudden i find myself here 5 days out of the week!

only in the afternoons.

 

[omgitswes]

I used to go all the time to get movies when I get bored.
But they started acting stupid saying I owe some late fees, when I turned them in on time. So I haven't been back since

 

[luxurious24]
