Watched two bums fight outside the new library downtown for about 10 min a month or so ago.

Ok. And it’s not my job to go to the library so you can have a job. Make better choices, boomer.

So yes.

You can't be trusted with funding, so in a functioning society you won't have it.

BREC parks used to be nice. I guess they still are. Forest Park on South Harrell's Ferry Road is like stepping in to a third world country, though.

We go every week.....

Library does a shitload around here for kids. Crafts, bringing in musical talent, and knowledge courses in STEM and wildlife (for example)

No, and nobody is going to force me or talk me into supporting a business that promotes trash to my kids.

Stop your national association from backing DQSH crap and maybe we would care!

Similar to how Blockbuster was crucial to promoting access to VHS rentals.

You’d be largely obsolete regardless of the grooming, but the grooming just makes me care even less.

That's called the internet. Libraries were irrelevant in 2001.


So you are OK with Google, and other corporate entities controlling what information you have access to? Unless you have access to independent databases which are usually not free, it can be impossible to find unbiased information using typical search engines.Because of search engine optimization paid for by corporations it is impossible to find information on many corporations that was not put their by the corporation itself.

Then throw the homeless people out, for GOD's sake.

Until then, they're going to continue to shite all over the library and bathe in the bathroom sinks.

Free Wi-Fi wasn't such a good idea after all.

The two public libraries in my area are basically homeless shelters. People use it as a Motel to piss, shite, sleep and use the Internet.

Public Libraries smell like arse. And the books? Who the frick wants to touch them and get the Bubonic Plague? Half of them have been in someone's bathroom.

Back in the day books were more expensive.

However even now we wouldn't have been able to afford the amount I read as a child.

Libraries are great. Many now have audio books you can borrow over the internet and listen. Many of their functions can be done over the internet.

However libraries are still great places to go and to have.

It's a shame most libraries are haven for crazy liberal people.
