I love the library
i recently went to the library, picked out a giant comfy chair in the middle of the place, sat down and just read for an hour. it was a genuinely pleasurable and cathartic experience. i highly suggest going just to be there. you don't have to check your books out and leave. hell, you don't have to check anything out at all. just browse, pick something up, start it, put it down, pick something different. just exist in a space built specifically for your community.
Libraries are a great way to spend time in public (regardless of reading/not-reading preferences)
Bc Third Spaces (places you can exist that aren't home or work/school) are endangered--and libraries are currently our most thriving species of Third Spaces. Natural characteristics of Libraries include:
- free wifi and outlets!
- quiet! peace and quiet!
- comfy seating
- not crowded!!!
- you get to be left alone in peace! personal space is sorta sacred at a library
- BUT there's also super friendly staff/patrons if you're feeling social.
How To Enjoy A Library (without reading anything if u don't want to):
- pack a laptop + thermos of Beverage + maybe some snacks? and just...go and hang out. sit in a comfy chair. stream a movie on the wifi. jam out (with headphone duh) while browsing socal media (or magazines!). luxuriate in being allowed to exist! in public! without being charged by the minute.
- (p.s. many libraries lend phone/laptop chargers, headphones, and even entire laptops. plus there's always the public desktops. if you're ever stuck with a few hours to kill...the library is comfier than the nearest starbucks)
IN CONCLUSION: libraries are just very comfy and convenient places to exist. you can go there, not glance at a single book, and still have a chill time w/ fun (and free!) public resources.
