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?

No, libraries aren’t all that quiet anymore. One day, one of my felow patrons had to shush the LIBRARIANS!!

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.
