How often do you use your local library? Have computers made them less necessary?
How often do you use your local library? Have computers made them less necessary?
ANTHONY HEAD, Dayton: “I use the library every single week. I’ve absolutely loved the library all my life. I’ve got four books our right now, and some waiting. We’ve got one of the best library systems in the country.”
MARY BRANDSTETTER, Fairborn: “I haven’t been to a library in many years. For a while they cut back their hours, and I just got out of the habit. I now have a network of book sharers. But I wouldn’t want to see libraries go away. My children use them.”
MARY PAT SAVORD, Dayton: “I’m from Toledo, and I used the library there a lot. My mom and I like to get books on tape and listen to them in the car. I would rather borrow a book than buy it, and even more so with books on tape.”
KEITH BOYER, Wright-Patterson AFB: “We don’t use it very often — maybe four or five times a year. We used it more often when we were kids. Certainly, technology has something to do with that.”
CAITLIN PETIT, Miamisburg: “I just graduated from college, so I hadn’t used the local library very much since I was in high school. But I used the college library all the time. I now live in the area, and I just got my library card two days ago, and I’m so excited to get all my books there.”
