The first time I went to the library in six years, while I have not gone to school.
the first impression I still have not forgotten, I remember went to the library and found it interesting children's books, I was very happy
Now, I almost do not use the library because there is the Internet and it can all be found, I go there occasionally for textbooks for learning and sometimes for some sort of an interesting book
I like the atmosphere in the library, there is the smell of old books and knowledge, it is cozy and quiet. anywhere else there is such an atmosphere it is not repeatable
even if the library is now losing its importance, and in the future even more, because now you can take all the Internet, and libraries are also electronic. the library has no future and I was a little frustrating
