Volunteer 16 months ago

From the time I was in sixth grade until my senior year, I volunteered at the local library as a page. I had so much fun working at the library. I got to help others, make new friends and read some awesome books.

Well it has actually been every 2 weeks, but that’s okay. The point is that we are going regularly. The library is open until 9 p.m. on Tuesdays, and I get my daughter every second week, so that’s when we go.



can't beat the public library! 3 years ago

free movies, books, music! at our library, we can request items online and pick them up at any branch for a small fee. a huge time saver!



Going tomorrow ? 3 years ago

I am planning on going tomorrow. I have four overdue books so hopefully it will be enough incentive to go… I have no books I currently need…so I will have to come up with a list at work.

I love books :) 4 years ago

I take my 2 daughters to the toddler reading session at the local library every week :) We socialise, read books & drink tea. It’s fab :)

I also go every couple of weeks on my own & wander around the non-fiction section & take out cookery books & self improvement books. I don’t need to take out fiction as I have 100’s of un-read books waiting for me at home :)

Our library is within walking distance so I go there often. One thing that might help with those of you with this goal is to put ‘holds’ on things. I reserve a lot of CDs and Movies and almost every week something is waiting there for me. Books on tape are great for people too busy to read.

I think the library is more inviting in the evenings. During the day it is often full of toddlers or older kids running around.



The smell of books 4 years ago

I used to work in a library. I loved the smell of the books and all the hidden treasures one could find amongst the shelves. I’ve often dreamed of having my own library that smelled of musky books I collect from all over the world, where I can curl up with my golden retriever, listen to rain outside, and read amidst a soft light.



Library experiences 4 years ago

Today was the first day that I went to the library since I made this a goal. I had a book in mind, but i took the slow way of finding it, wandering around rooms full of shelves, trying to grasp the pattern.

There was music there! The library in the town I grew up in only had books: here there are shelves and shelves of recordings and sheet music. It amazes me.
