Fuck yes, libraries are awesome, and I'm so glad that people are turning back to them.
BTW, this is a good reminder to patronize your local branch today and, if possible, throw some money their way.

i can walk to my small local library here in rural Australia and luckly my local taxes (rates) pay for it. I can also use the Overdrive App to borrow and read my library books on my Kobo. I walk down once a fortnight and get a book or three out even if I don't read them, chat to the librarian etc
Its only a tinu library but they can get in whatever I want from all over the state. I.also don't own a printer and use theres for the occasional print job at 20c a page.

My local library offers a selection of movies and a projector to watch them on! Honestly I think we should normalize going to the library for a date or hangout and, yeah, something like a regular Friday night library visit for movie night

I mean movie night worked in Star Trek Enterprise to bring the crew together so I bet it would work in real life too!
