The publishers give books away free to libraries now? No salaries are paid to librarians? Will you open the library when I get off work at 11:30 pm, so I can get some of those free books?
Just teasing. Libraries are one of the better uses of our tax money, if only people would use them.
I and my children will patronize our local library when
1) They stop shelving the Pokemon comics next to the Alan Moore graphic novels,
2) Rethink the implications of a Margaret Sanger biography written for fifth graders,
and 3) Move the graphic sex education manuals from toddler height two feet from the board books.
I agree about the Libraries. I am one of our users too. My wife is even more so.
Our living room is full of library books right now.
YES they are all properly checked out. :P
