For me, a couple of months ago to use the computers and Internet.

I try to go every week. I'm reading Michelle Obama's memoir now.

Over 30 years ago for the public library system
About 20 years ago for the college library
It's kind of sad that libraries are slowly going away, the internet has made dinosaurs of them:/

I suppose in some places they're going away. Around here they're still very busy. They're even building a new one in the adjoining town. A new one, not replacing an old one.

That's good to hear
I feel like the internet has made me a tad lazy and libraries are great places...I just use the 'net so much now:/

i know there are always lots of people in our city's major downtown library.
but it seems to me very few of them are there reading books.
the vast majority of people i see there are working on laptops, presumably utilizing the wi-fi.

and i do see a lot of students studying.

I don't remember, but it has been a few years.

I use the public library every day, since I don't have a home computer and I don't want one. I borrow DVDs, and books. Love it.
