I go more often to the library, given that there aren't that many large bookshops with the titles that I am interested in. Also, I prefer to borrow books, so that they don't accumulate on my desk in a big pile! I know that for some people it's a beautiful aesthetic, but personally, having many objects on my desk really distracts me!

Bookstore (and book cafe), hands down.
There's a small library in my neighborhood and I browse around to find some gems, tho. Just not enough books to choose from.

I personally prefer to visit the library more often than a bookstore. Libraries offer a wide range of resources, including books, e-books, and access to databases, which I find more convenient and cost-effective.

Bookstore, because there's more freshness here. Some libraries in my area have somewhat outdated and worn-out book collections.
