Reviews
"Today's 28th July, 2024 and I am reading a book that once stood in this library shelf. The book has some stamps from this library with stamp years of 1977 and 1978. It is hard to imagine how far this book travelled to reach my hands now in Brazil."
"Some kids play game too noisy. Very bad."
"The place is quite small and noisy. All the computers were either broken or taken. When I first went there, there were teenagers who were doing inappropriate things to the library and the librarians had to call the police to get them out. Overall, it is worst than the other libraries I've gone to"
"very loud, almost everybody who goes are just middle schoolers who use computers all the time. they hog it up just to play games and treat the library like a play place. when they're not there, it's very nice."
"I haven't been in this library since I was a kid. Boy has it changed. It's mostly tons of computers now and a bunch of teenagers napping on the desks. Probably skipping class. No enthusiasm for books. I saw no one reading a book or browsing. It's almost as like I'm the weirdo for looking at the books. Before the Internet this place was full of readers and people checking out magazines, newspapers renting movies. Kids having fun. Now it looks like a place to hide and be antisocial."
