Whats everyones opinions on libraries?

Went there today, and the calmness was amazing, usually I buy books but from now on I think i'm just going to go there. I haven't been to the one in this city before.

For those who use libraries, what kind of books do you enjoy, and do you prefer to take them home or read them in the Library?

I like to eat a lot of beans and other gassy foods, and go to the library.

I can get my farts to reverberate through the whole building on a good day.  8)

Meh, I always forget to return books and cop lots of fines, so then I stopped going.

I love libraries worked in one for two years in collage.  Research was my specialty I knew where almost everything was.  With the internet you can just do a search I miss the quite solitude of the stacks and periodical rooms

I should have returned a book back in August, I got one notice demanding I either reimburse the library for it. At this point, I probably owe fines equal to the cost of the book. I really need to get in there and face the penalty.  :-\

Hmm, it doesn't match personally, you don't get the calmness and atmosphere from the net.  :thumbup:
