One of my passions is reading all kinds of subjects. Buying books can be quite an expensive hobby, so the library is the next best thing. 😁 The Libby app is pretty cool along with the library app that I can use on my phone or my laptop.
I come from a different state, counties are a lot smaller and towns are closer together but if you live in a different town you can’t take out books from their library. 😑
So, I really love the concept of a network of the libraries. It’s a game changer! The ability to find a book, put a hold on it, pick it up & drop it off at the closest library to where you live is a godsend!
I live in Conroe & that library is pretty impressive. I don’t even feel uncomfortable if I need to leave my laptop while searching for a book. The newer security guard makes everyone feel very safe and he even checks on you if you’ve been there for a while. One night I was one of the last people to be leaving & the only female. He saw me & said he wants to ensure everyone’s safety so he followed me all the way outside, watched as I packed up & gave me the thumbs up that I’m good to go. It’s really nice to know he takes his job seriously. (I think he’s ex Law Enforcement)
There’s a lot of different types of places to sit, depending on what you are doing. I like to sit by the window at the large desk area in the corner to spread out my work & laptop. I carry a lot of stuff with me so it’s nice to have room!
I am the type that needs to be in a place free from too many distractions and the library is my new home for this. I am studying for my bachelors degree in forensics & crime scene investigation. Lots of papers to write & LOTS of studying law! The law section has such an array of different sources for me & has saved me more than once in writing papers! 🙌🏻
This library ROCKS! Keep up the good work.
