Even book stores are going the way of the dinosaur. Who needs them with ebooks? I DO!!! Guelph , Ontario, Canada is spending $62,000,000 on a new library than MAY be used, possibly 5% of the time. That big a library is a total waste of taxpayer’s money. That is the same city that pays their city councellors $80.00 per hour for possibly 1000 hours a YEAR of work. Must be nice to have the money.
You know libraries jumped the shark to becoming irrelevant when they not only started pandering to the pedos and LGBTQ+ crowds, but they also began to discriminate against any non-leftist authors when it came to books they would acquire.

Who needs a library when you’ve got book stores like Barnes and Noble?

The libraries I go to are still quiet, and activities like that are in a different room.

Ben Franklin once said, “The 3 things every town needs. A Church, a school, and a library.”

Karen, you know you’re not allowed back in the library after the “pudding incident”. Hit the bricks.

I love libraries. They are such magical places. These books reading initiatives are amazing.

If anyone is interested, Augusta Falls is reading “The Day the Crayons Quit” by Drew Daywalt.
