I love going to the library and have always done so. I am now even working in a library. Do you like going to the library? Do you have a favorite library. What do you do usually read/do at the library?

No, I don't. I don't like reading much besides magazines and newspapers so I don't feel the need of go to a library many times.

Yes I like the library because there I feel like at home. I wanna read a lot of books!!! Generally I read the books for the university and about the history of the music.

library - a picture of a noisy library
when i was still studying, i love to go to the library to do research works, read books and study there. it's a lot peaceful and i get to concentrate on what i am doing. but now, i no longer visit libraries. when reading books, i just stay inside my room to read. it's still okey. but nothing beats the library's silence.

I love to read but I hate the library. I buy my books at the half price book store and hand them down to friends and family. I also keep the good ones so I can read them again.

Wow, lucky you to get to work in a library. I love going to libraries. When i was staying with my mom in sydney, our house was just 2 blocks away from the public library. So whenever i have time, i'll spend hours there reading books. I like many kind of books. Right now, the nearest to my place would be the national library which is about 7km away from my house.

yup! i like to go to the library when i used to be in school. but now that i am already a graduate, i seldom have the chance to visit a library. BUt if were given a chance, i would like to go back into goin into a library. what i lik most in the library is the atmosphere. its very quiet and relaxing. there's no tension around you (except for some few misunderstandings of the student and the librarian), everything is jus so peaceful.

I used to go to the library as a kid. But I've never been much for reading, so I stopped going when we weren't assigned to read books. Funny thing is, I love going to the bookstore and buying books. But I don't even get to a lot of them.

I take my four yr old son to the library every Wednesday. First we head to the Sci-fi/fantasy section to I can get a book and then we head to the children's section where he can pick out his books and play and colour. I am trying to instill in him the same love of books that my Mom gave me.

wow, a library of your own. that's cool. aren't you so lucky? anyway, i do also go to the library rarely since i am now working. sometimes, i feel like i don't need to go there anymore. but honestly, i think it's the best place for people especially when they want to have a better time in researching and reading by interest.

I don't go as often as I should. Not because I don't want to. It's just I have a library of my own and I haven't even finished all the I have so it would be a waste of time to check ones out at the library that I probably wouldn't get to anyways. I do go to the library if I'm doing research on something and I want to confirm what I've read online.

I have always loved going to the library. This habit was instilled in me from my mom. I have many memories from childhood of spending Saturday afternoons at the library with my mom and brother. In college, the library was a refuge from my dorm room where I could study or read magazines. Anytime I move to a new city, one of the first things I do is visit the library and get my new library card. Now I have passed the love of books and the library to my kids. The library at my alma mater Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas is one of my favorites!! Someday I would love to work at a library even if it is just as a volunteer!!
