I will start by saying: An excellent post which lights up my Sunday!
Libraries are a place which have been very close to my heart, since my childhood. I was a member of 2 private libraries going up and books were my best friend then.
However, at present with the exponential upsurge of electronic media, books in themselves have taken a back seat. Also, it is far easier to find a book online in a digital copy. I can read it in my own pace and not bother actually having to return it.
Honestly, we would feel indeed libraries have fallen out of favor. But given the chance, there is nothing which gives me more pleasure than actually holding a hard copy of a book and reading out of it. Then it becomes an experience... the ambience, the fragrance... and the world of possibilities...
