Do you use it?

I once went to the library to borrow my favorite book to read, it's only need 100RMB as a deposit to get a library card. then it will have a month of limit to read these books, and it will need extra cost if you don't return these books to library. I don't go to the library now, because I have a little time to read.How's the regulation to get a library card there?

I do but only for books. I have borrowed movies and they were scratched and wouldn't play in my DVD. I have a problem with having to get the book FINISHED in the required time. So I use it about 50% of the the time I could be using it.

I use the library a lot, and I have two different library cards. There is a small library pretty close ot my home, they don't have a lot of different books, but I still like to go there every once in a while. It is also possible to borrow cds and films at the library. My husband loves films so when we go there he usually borrows many films and I borrow some books or some cds. I live on an island and there is a great library in the largest city. It is much bigger than my local library, and I usually borrow many books when I am there.

I do actually use the library normally. I am working on a project right now that has me out of my home area and I won't go as often. when my kids were little we went all the time. THey enjoy books and reading now too! We used to rent movies and all sorts of things when they were still small. Last year I moved to a large city and the resources available through the library were great!

I like to visit my town library, but not often because I can go to my town only on holidays and when ever I go to my town I'll visit at least once. There are some large collections of books and some books related to the history of my town. I have a great interest in knowing the history of my town(everyone will have this interest on their place). I will spend minimum 2 to 3 hours there... And I am not a member of my library..... Now a days internet become a greatest source of information, so it is not possible to have frequent visit to libraries... Libraries become a place to get relaxed now-a-days..... ThanQ Jennlk84..... For reminding about the habit of visiting libraries.....

I used to emerse myself in public libraries as i would read books on tape and cd. it was my way of relaxing. and it was very fun and i learned a lot.

I have not been to a library in a while. There for a while my husband and I used to utilize the library just to be able to check out Movies to watch, but then we got to the point where we had seen all of them, so we quit utilizing it as well. Now we just recently moved to a home we just bought, and even though we're only about 25-30 mins. from where we used to live, we're in a New county and have no idea where the library is here in this area as well.

Me and my son love the library. The library is very close to his school so when I pick him up from school (I dont drive and husband and my father pick my son) but when I walk there to pick him up he knows its library time. At first we used it because it was convinient. I was pregnant and it was hot so I would walk to school pick him up and then go to the library and wait for my husband to finish work and pick us up (its about 2km walk to home). My sone loves book ever since he was a baby so to see him get so excited in the library I am glad I have passed that love for books to him. He gets so many books (we can get unlimited amount of book) and we read them before bed time (5-6 at 1 time)

I go to the National Library every six weeks because it is about 80 km away. The membership is free. There are many books to choose from. A member can borrow 3 books for 3 weeks, and can have the period extended by another 3 weeks. The library now offers WiFi for free, and users can plug into the mains without having to pay anything. The library is divided into 2 sections, Adults, Children, and Reference only. There are four floors for the Reference section, and two floors for the Adult section. At the Children section there is a viewing room, and cyber room. An adult can borrow children's books. The library also organises many activities especially during the school holidays. These include theatre, colouring, and story telling. My children have won several prizes. Everyone in the family is a member. It means we borrow 42 books at a time. My children love going to the National Library because of the books and activities.

I used to go to the local public library all the time, but I haven't been doing that as much recently. One reason is that I work in a bookstore. I can borrow books for up to two weeks at a time as long as they meet certain criteria, so I tend to do that a lot. I also get one free paperback book every week, plus I get first dibs on any advance copies that interest me. These days, when I go to the public library, it's so I can buy books at the Friends of the Library sales. I used to collect as many good books as I could, but I've been focusing on reducing my collection lately. Now, when I buy books at the Friends of the Library sales, I look for things I can resell to local stores for a profit to earn a little extra money.

No I go to my schools library which is bigger than the public library if I ever need a book, or if I need some software the school has to do some homework

We love our library. I just wish they had a bigger movie selection. We are planning on visiting another county library this weekend to see what they have. However, we constantly get books, CD, and movies for us and our children. I don't think there is any better resource for books for the kids. I usually don't quite know which books my son has already read, so I am a bit shy about buying him some. But I can take him there and he will disappear and come back with a stack of something to read. I try to ensure that he never loses his love for reading, so far so good, he is 15 and still at it, as well as my 19 year old. It is easier to buy books for the little ones sometimes, since I am afraid of the rough treatment that our 5 year old bestows on everything she touches :-)

i go sometimes to my local library but i can't do it regulary because of my work. But i read a lot every day, that not depends of your visits to your local library. Libraries are nice places, unfortunetly most people don't think the same and find this stupi or a waste of time

I visit the library very often ,since i read only there. When I come back home ,bed and Tv seem to be more attractive for me .

I use the Central Library in Port of Spain, Trinidad where I get fiction books to read and that includes stuff by John D MacDonald and others like him. Its a great place to get books to read when you can't afford to buy the stuff brand new.

We do use our public library a lot. I probably go about once a week or every other week. Sometimes I take my kids with me and sometimes I go alone.

I do use the library on a regular basis. I have 2 books checked out as I type this. My daughter likes to get dvd's too. So we both go there several times monthly. And it does help that there is one on the next block from my work. LOL

Me, I take advantage of it, A MUCH! I visit it almost every single day because of some reasons. First, we can borrow books for free, and I can find almost every book I need without obligation to buy one. =) There is limitation of 3 weeks for one time borrow. But we can always extend it whenever we want. =) Second, we can loan DVD's, but there is fee for the loan. =) Third, we can book a room which is available for studying and meeting.

We have a private library at home. We collect books for reference. There are a few public library near our area so it is not that accessible. Reading is a wonderful habit. It increases knowledge and imagination. It allows to know more about a person, place and procedure without having to experience it or travelling. It teaches comprehension and patience. I cannot recall how many times I was commended for having a stack knowledge that I acquired from just reading books and other media. It is sad though that the introduction of the internet have lessen the number of bookworms in the world.

I used to go to the public library way back when I was still studying. When There isn't any textbook available for rent, I look for them in the library both at our school library and in the public library just so I could photocopy them and avoid borrowing from my classmates. Most times, it's for research. By the way, our public library didn't require any card to make use of its facilities, and it's totally free of course. The odd thing is that there are more books and materials at our school library. The government here does not even take that in consideration.
