I haven't personally used a library in a very long time, but, having spent a sizeable portion of my youth reading, I have such fond memories of my mum taking me and my siblings to libraries when we were young and poor.

Genuinely one of the most beautiful things that exists in society. Free knowledge, available to anyone and everyone, with no expectations of payment. I read somewhere that if someone came up with the idea of a library in today's world, it would never happen. The fact that libraries exist in the modern world in spite of the commercialisation of everything, restores some of my faith in humanity.
