@Mansoor I teach classes that sometimes take place in libraries (I teach new sped teachers). The librarians are always very helpful and don’t even mind when I lagged behind to read the kiddie books 🙂
@Mansoor … I take like 10 books at a time, no need to be more “regular”. Im a borderline agoraphobic… perhaps not the best person to be joking about leaving the house to ?
Mansoor Jahangir Nice to meet u, too. Hope I didnt come across too salty with my reply. Went a couple years without a public Library in me life because my illness got the better of me, and so feel rather excited its only been 2 weeks since Id been. Felt a bit deflated in my excitement for a moment, lol.
@Mansoor it is and the best thing in our main library is that you can find there so many different book in different languages. Of course the main languages of the world like english, spanish, german, french, italian, portuguese, russian but also many others. Also our own languages which are in here official languages. Maybe because in my hometown we have peoples around the world who lives in here.
@Mansoor Yes. I wish I could get there more often physically but the hours are tough and I was finding myself holding onto books too long and incurring fines. Now I take out my books electronically from the library via Overdrive. So I’m still making great use of my library card. ?
It’s a great place, I volunteer there when I can. And they save unsold books for my wife, who keeps a young adult library at the drop-in center where she works.
I’m lucky enough to live in two countries (Australia and the United States) and travel the world. Prior to switching almost exclusively to digital books I hadn’t used a library in years and I spent a truly shocking amount of money on books. I just wasn’t in one country long enough to go in person check out read and return. Now I use Sydney, And Tulsa Library systems continuously and although I rarely walk into one I’m utilizing my libraries daily.
I’m in the USA now in Tulsa, off to Dallas Friday, Sydney Sunday, won’t be back to either USA house for 3 full months. This is my life. It’s just not a relaxed laid back life but I still need to read every single day to stay sane. I LOVE digital books!
I’ve donated and gifted most of my once massive libraries of paper books at this point. The little girl who always needs the reassurance and comfort of lots of books who lives inside me was a bit freaked out but it’s the story I need to escape into not the paper pages!
I honestly don’t know how long it’s been… I only go to the one downtown cuz theyre the only one with an area just for kids to be kids and we haven’t been down that way for quite awhile….
2 years ago the last winner 2016 the last winner sanity I visited Washington DC first place I went to was the Congressional Library my biggest thrill was getting a library card that allowed me to check books out of the Library of Congress. I felt so honored holding on to that card it is treasured I didn’t get to check out a book cuz I was leaving town but I was allowed to enter to the bookcases I look down into where they check out the books I sat there and read 4 hours from one precious book to another and I cried when I left because it was not enough. When I entered the Thomas Jefferson Library room I was so overwhelmed with emotion I almost fainted Thomas Jefferson I hear all mine since I was a child. I treasure those memories
Thursday, and stopping by later today to get Barbara Kingsolver’s new book! Just got an email it’s come in and is being held for me. Hawaii is the only state with a state wide library network!
@Mansoor just no need to travel. The online selection is better than my local library’s physical collection and then I don’t have to keep up with a physical book. I did a lot of driving this last weekend and wanted an audio book—was so easy to download to my phone and plug in and go as I was setting off on my journey!
If you count online, I go weekly since I normally read on my kindle. Only go into the library when I have to renew my card since ours doesn’t do that online yet.
I home school my daughter and it is actually a requirement that she has to have weekly library visits. So it is a good thing that we both love to read. 🙂
Last week at the college library. But my husband goes to the local library, so I just text him what I want, and he brings it to me! Had to wait a week for my current book: Craig Johnson’s latest Longmire book: Depth of Winter. Nearly half way through and I haven’t figured the title out yet, seeing as how they are in Mexico in the summer and he keeps talking about how hot it is.
@Mansoor I have a terrible habit of losing library books:( when my husband and I bought our first home, I had to pay over $100 bucks in library fees…. now I’m addicted to the instant thrill of kindle book buying…
Every week with my children. They love it! ..even one of my daughters who isn’t much of a reader, when she chooses to tag along, will pick up and choose a book to bring home. ?
My last was Springfield Confidential, by Mike Reiss. The author worked on The Simpsons from the very beginning. I enjoyed it very much. Went to the library to get my reserve and surprise, there were 2. So currently reading Sing, Unburied, Sing, by Jesmyn Ward.
@Mansoor Really no good reason we have these free little libraries in our community that everyone donates books to, there are about 4 of them in our neighborhood so I usually get a book from there and donate a book. Plus we have a bunch of bookstores that have new and used books and I often shop in the used section. I also buy books in garage sales as well. Right now I probably have at least 100 books to read lol. I do love libraries however I just like having a collection of my own I guess.
@Mansoor I ordered “The Hate U Give”. Because my daughter is reading it in school and i wanted to read with her. I also ordered “The Wait: A Powerful Practice for Finding the Love of Your Life and the Life You Love.
Here lately, I’ve been into self help books. I listened to The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle on audio not too long ago.
Oh the library visit was for the children since they didn’t have the books I was looking for ?
2011 my 5th year in college when I cross enrolled to another college because my schedule won’t fit. They were failed subjects in my main school and I had to apply for a library card just to borrow a book that my harda** instructor wanted us to get because all the questions to his exams were there. I know I may sound bitter but jeez.
I went twice yesterday! First time to renew two books, Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day by Jeff Hertzberg & Zoe Francois and My Sister’s Grave by Robert Dugoni. Then back that evening with my husband to vote.
Yesterday, bi monthly book group met at the branch library 1/2 a block from me.. and I voted earl, I do have an extensive personal eclectic library of my own, and maintain library tbr queues via inter-library loans .. and use overdrive. will be at ya author event this Sunday with preteen grandchildren.. I volunteer at our main library for an emergent reader group.. I am retired as an emergent literacy educator..
Last summer. I belong to a classic book club and it meets in our library. It was built in the 1800’s and has that wonderful library smell. Don’t go enough.
@Mansoor How often do YOU go??? (Maybe this has been asked and you have already answered. I just skimmed the other responses. Sorry if this is a repeat! =/ )
Lost interest, and lack of time I think. I have accumulated so many books at home that I try and work through those. If there is a new title I want to read I order it on my Kindle.
picked up Bannerless (carrie vaughn)yesterday. today going to pick up coming out under fire (allan berube), made to kill (adam christopher), and the secret life of violet grant (renee rosen)
As in which ones I got from the library? They were mainly home improvement and renovation books as we have a load of work to do on the house and I wanted inspiration. I was looking for a book on Vincent Van Gogh that is basically his letters to his brother, called My Life and Love are One, as a companion to Irving Stone’s Lust for Life, which I’m currently enjoying. It’s out of print though and they didn’t have it. And I got a couple of Neil Gaiman comic books, which isn’t something I’d normally read but thought they might be fun to try. The one I read was The Books of Magic and I also got the first in The Sandman series.
@Mansoor Don’t have one close by, and I move a lot so it’s not been a smart choice to borrow books that might never be returned? Easier to just buy them

I’m lucky enough to live in two countries (Australia and the United States) and travel the world. Prior to switching almost exclusively to digital books I hadn’t used a library in years and I spent a truly shocking amount of money on books. I just wasn’t in one country long enough to go in person check out read and return. Now I use Sydney, And Tulsa Library systems continuously and although I rarely walk into one I’m utilizing my libraries daily.
@Lora iam not just impressed, iam overwhelmed.. (y)
I’m in the USA now in Tulsa, off to Dallas Friday, Sydney Sunday, won’t be back to either USA house for 3 full months. This is my life. It’s just not a relaxed laid back life but I still need to read every single day to stay sane. I LOVE digital books!

I have been checking out audio books and e-reads from the library without leaving my house!
@Cynthia really but how come without leaving home
@Mansoor just no need to travel. The online selection is better than my local library’s physical collection and then I don’t have to keep up with a physical book.
I did a lot of driving this last weekend and wanted an audio book—was so easy to download to my phone and plug in and go as I was setting off on my journey!
@Cynthia yes u r right but that special feeling of library and among countless books is just out of this world
This morning.

Last month and will go tomorrow.
It’s been a long time.
Why Michelle
@Mansoor Really no good reason we have these free little libraries in our community that everyone donates books to, there are about 4 of them in our neighborhood so I usually get a book from there and donate a book. Plus we have a bunch of bookstores that have new and used books and I often shop in the used section. I also buy books in garage sales as well. Right now I probably have at least 100 books to read lol. I do love libraries however I just like having a collection of my own I guess.
I felt you think the right way to have books available anytime 🙂
I work in an elementary school library!
So lucky you Lisa

Here lately, I’ve been into self help books. I listened to The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle on audio not too long ago.
Oh the library visit was for the children since they didn’t have the books I was looking for ?

2011 my 5th year in college when I cross enrolled to another college because my schedule won’t fit. They were failed subjects in my main school and I had to apply for a library card just to borrow a book that my harda** instructor wanted us to get because all the questions to his exams were there. I know I may sound bitter but jeez.

@Karen nice choice
Every day – I’m a librarian ❤️
So lucky you Stacy
Last Monday. Have a pile of books it will take me months to get through. Have already read one. Admittedly it was a comic book.
Please share some books if possible Lindsey
As in which ones I got from the library? They were mainly home improvement and renovation books as we have a load of work to do on the house and I wanted inspiration. I was looking for a book on Vincent Van Gogh that is basically his letters to his brother, called My Life and Love are One, as a companion to Irving Stone’s Lust for Life, which I’m currently enjoying. It’s out of print though and they didn’t have it. And I got a couple of Neil Gaiman comic books, which isn’t something I’d normally read but thought they might be fun to try. The one I read was The Books of Magic and I also got the first in The Sandman series.
Oh and this one: Inferior by Angela Saini
@Lindsey how did u find this last book
Haven’t read it yet. Just dipped in and out. So far so good.
I go all the time.

@Carolyn love your reply (y)
I’m in a library right now. I spent about 40 hours a week here. (I work here)
Last week??
Once a week! It’s such a great place but don’t think I take full advantage of all the resources it has to offer.
I go there almost once a week 🙂
when I lived in Melbourne in 2014.
Its been awhile since i found my local thrift store has books for 50 cents
This morning …. xxxx
It’s been years. I think maaaaybe the last time was around 2014 or something.
@Julia.. Oh no.. Why stopped going now???
@Mansoor Don’t have one close by, and I move a lot so it’s not been a smart choice to borrow books that might never be returned? Easier to just buy them
