do you still go to library for a book

Once in a while, I'll always love the library, but these days I get most of my books from Kindle Unlimited!

I love the library. When I was a kid going to the library was like going to an Amusement Park (though I enjoyed the library more!). It is still an awesome place to be and I still get books from there. You get to have fun picking out the book and going to the library. Why give that up for convenience?

I still enjoy trips to the library but usually bring my own reading materials. Either a paperback or just reading through my laptop or phone. Sometimes I do browse through the books at the library but then go out and buy it for myself.

Yes! Whenever I go to a bookstore and find books I want to read, I make a list and search for them at my library to save money. However, I do love owning books so I can reread them and write in them.

Honestly, I don't have much luck finding good (interesting) books at our local library. Mostly, I buy my books off Amazon or similar website.

I do still try to visit my library at least 2 times a year for their used book sales, which are fun to peruse. And I like to donate my unwanted books to them also, for the sales.

I'm in a bookclub that meets in the library every two weeks. I also get ebooks online from the library.

No, I don't go to libraries anymore.

I used to go to the bookstore and purchase all my books. I loved getting a new book. I ended up with a lot of books, many that I never read. To save me financially, I started going to the library for books and I love it! I like the search, especially for books I didn't know were out there. I have a tendency to get too many books at once (I can't help myself). I like that I can read a book and then release back into the world for someone else to enjoy instead of sitting on my bookshelf collecting dust.

No, I have not been to a library in years to get a book. When I used to have an hour roundtrip commute to work, I would often go to the library to borrow books on DVD. They were such a great way to pass the time so I didn't mind the commute at all.

I almost always get books from my library. I'm usually there once a week or so with my daughter anyway (good free entertainment!), so we grab all our kids books there. I usually put holds on the books I want that are in my library network, and they are waiting for me whenever I go in.

I still go to the library for books. I actually just picked up a few the other day. My library is cool in that they let you know how much money you've saved by borrowing a book instead of buying it each time you check one out. I saved myself 76 dollars in one trip

I go to college so they have a library there that I sometimes go there when I want to read something. I think libraries are losing their significance due to sites like Amazon and Barnes and nobles. It is more peaceful to read them at the library where you can space to your self to read and enjoy.

Honestly, I can't remember the last time I visited a library. The internet has made everything so easy.

I absolutely use the library. I'm not necessarily a collector of books, I just want to read. I reserve the books I want so that when I go, they are for sure to be available for me.
