I have always been a member of at least one library or another – at one point 4 (local library near my parents, British Library, uni library and the library I currently use).
Libraries are wonderful places, offering community services and access to the internet all for free. All you need is a library card.
Recently my local libraries have gone all high tech – and reduced librarians to computerised check out and card entry doors. I’m not sure I’m a fan.
Today I returned 2 books (historical crime fiction) and took out 4. Two graphic novels, the reading group book (decided to join it for a bit) and another historical crime novel.
I also checked out the Cityread London program – but the book in question was checked out!
Libraries are for everyone – whatever age, race, identity, language you speak, the library is for you too.
