Default Re: Libraries: a cave where genius abides

Where I come from libraries are a public right so by law everyone should have access to one, they can't charge money and are obliged to order books you want to read which they don't have, so I don't have a library card because I don't need one. *edit* I actually have two cards which works are library cards, I had forgotten that.

But I agree that libraries are fairly awesome places. The interweb has stolen much of its glory but the large digitalized academic libraries beats the living daylights out of any google/wikipedia combination, so the heritage lives on. Library science is still the best option for preserving knowledge and works.

Good old libraries still wreck on the fiction front though. Libraries make me happy. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
