My boys love the library though and have their favorite shelves and sections!Holly (2 Kids and Tired)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13075380878850295214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-72034350063230671482009-04-03T15:45:00.000-05:002009-04-03T15:45:00.000-05:00I love libraries.

Throughout the year, at least once a week. I kept remember the last time I went longer than two weeks without a visit in the last two years.<BR/><BR/><B>Has the coffeehouse/bookstore replaced the library?</B><BR/><BR/>No, it's the other way around. The library replaced the coffeehouse/bookstore. As my level of discretionary funds changed so did my social habits. I also outgrew open mic nights and most commercial bookstores cater to latest releases and my reading habits are influenced by pub dates but my current interests.<BR/><BR/><B> Did you go to the library as a child? Do you have any particular memories of the library?</B><BR/><BR/>We did not go often as children. My mother instead always gave us book money for scholastic and the like. I do remember the libraries in my schools and I loved them. I thought they were peaceful, lovely spaces.<BR/><BR/><B> Do you like sleek, modern, active libraries or the older, darker, quiet, cozy libraries?</B><BR/><BR/>I love all libraries. When I travel, I visit libraries the same way a tourist would visit a museum. I love old college libraries. I loved doing my homework in the library while in college even when I didn't need anything from the library.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14924982664582970754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-19360361680883639912009-04-02T22:22:00.000-05:002009-04-02T22:22:00.000-05:00I used the library tons when I was a kid.

I think I've checked out 1 book for fun (the rest are for school projects) in the last 4 years. lolAmeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367469639810419455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-5981043953660444362009-04-02T21:08:00.000-05:002009-04-02T21:08:00.000-05:00I really need to cut down on library books and foc...I really need to cut down on library books and focus solely on my own because I have so many, but it's so hard!Meghanhttp://chikune.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
