Do you enjoy spending time at the library? What kind of books do you like? Are you studying for school or for personal research? Do you read for enjoyment?

when I was still in school, I would always go to the library because I wouldn't be able to do anything if I'm at home. Either I'd be sleeping or watching tv or be on the net!.. The library gives me the time to concentrate on my paper and having resources at your disposal is a big plus. I always find that I can do a lot when in the library, time just seem to pass by and before you know it, you're done.

I'd have to say I'm a fan of just going down to the library, not only for studies, but for personal enjoyment just to hang out and relax

I enjoy spending time at the library. There is a brand library in my area with a large number of new books in many subjects. I enjoy reading mysteries, romances, cookbooks, tropical fish, ponds, and many other books.

About three years ago I use to love going to the lirary but about a couple of months ago I stopped because the library is not how it use to be there are kids in my local one that make alot of noise and whenever the librarian asks them to shut up they keep talking anyway then you have the ones that listen to the radio and different things but before all that it use to be a place that I called my second home I would just read all the books that were mysterious and so forth and sit all the way in the back so I felt more comfortable, Oh did I mention that the library now has cameras when the H_(@ did that happen you can't even trust people to come in and read a few pages without something going on

At our local library, someone stole a painting off of the wall. The painting has never been recovered. Can you imagine someone walking in and taking a painting out without being seen by anyone? It is quite baffling.

Yes, I like spending time at the library. I usually don't stay there to read though, I just pick out what I want to check out, and then go home to read my books. I like getting books on things that interest me, or just fiction novels if I have the time to read them.

I love books !!!! I read childrens books daily for my daycare kids, and love a good fantasy adventure to loose myself into completely. I am writing a young adult fantasy novel now. But I still love to just curl up and jump into any kind of mystery, But get excited about the new childrens books that come out on market too. I just Love ALL books

Hi Royal, I try to spend as much time as I can at the library, and my children are usually with me, choosing books of interest to them... Love the library and reading itself...

Yes, I love going to my lcoal library and the bigger one in town - I just go to browse and have some peace & quiet away from my mad family, it's a luxury! I read so much, I couldn't afford to keep up with all the latest novels if I bought them all ... instead, I save my cash for books that are to do with my business and esoteric interests. I guess my favourite sections are the travel writing section and the health section. That's where I seem to spend a lot of my time, anyways! Although I am studying for my diploma, I primarily do personal research in the library. Yes, I LOVE reading. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't read any more!

I love the library. No I'm not a nerd but I can sit there all day reading fiction and personality development books. I just finished my high school so I have no access to the school library for three whole months. Boo hoo. :(

We use the library alot. We borrow movies, books, cd's, use the computers and read the newspapers. It might were we spend alot of time here for a bit since our housefire took everything. We will still have computer access and that will enable us to continue the things we have started though at a diminished level. Libraries are grand things and I would hope that they always exist.

I love spending time in the library. What makes it so nice the library is right around the corner from me. Well, withing walking distance. I like to go in and browse around the books. I love to read romance stories. I like other kind of books also but those are the ones I like the best. I know the libraian and it is not unusual for me to spend a lot of time talking to her. They also have music CD's that I take out. Especially the New Era music. So spending time at the library for me is a enjoyable experience.
