Heyy Motherfricker. My kids call me Big Chungus.

And Liberries are havens for the homeless. They can come use the internets and bathrooms. That's pretty standard in every city and state.

I have lived in many different parts of the world and in several 'cities' in Louisiana.
True there are many parts of Baton Rouge that are in need of a good deep power wash. I have lived in some parts of Louisiana where I felt like I was cut off from the remainder of the world. And compared to them Baton Rouge always seemed to be the place that presented a hope of opportunity. Lately that has changed but I not moving back to Pineville.

I’ve lived in almost a dozen cities across the country. There is no such thing as the perfect place. But there is such a thing as the perfect place FOR YOU.

Louisiana is that place at this time for us.

1) BR is a fricking horrible city I agree
2) The public library in Nola I imagine is worse. Homeless, feces, and needles everywhere
3) Any big-decent sized city is a gigantic shite hole.

Welcome to Biden's America/Land of the Liberals.

Main branch libraries keep many vital archives. Digital copies still need to have originals housed somewhere.

How many people need to be able to access original copies? And do you think that measure of demand justifies the cost of location and design?

It sure seems like a remote warehouse would be more cost effective and less of a burden on taxpayers.

If homeless people would prefer living in remote data storage warehouses, let’s build more of them.

I assume this is how most public funded places are. In other words, unless I absolutely have to (which I can't think of a reason this would be the case), I would never go to a public library in a city.

What did you have to go to the library for?

....decades and decades of democrat rule, baw. The homeless in the square - evidence of a shrinking gene pool.

Everyone has either left, in the process of leaving, or thinking about leaving.

Sad

I went there when I was a teenager in the '80s, thought I'd found a goldmine, and took an armful of books to the front so I could check them out

Around the time "vagrants" became "The Homeless" (I love how even people who hate them still use the newspeak euphemism "The Homeless", as they've been conditioned ).

To be fair, public libraries pretty much everywhere are homeless hangouts.
No they are not
maybe not in the suburbs but in the downtowns of big cities they are definitely present, along w/poor people who want to get online

I lived in the Shenandoah area back in the early 2000's. Was pretty nice then. I went back a year ago when I was in town and it definitely appears to have changed for the worse.
