Hey hey, as a librarian, can I just say donβt pace yourself at the library. I get a lot of customers saying βoh I shouldnβt get too many books out at onceβ but like you should!!!! Max out your card, take everything we have on a subject youβre interested in, make a book fort in your home. We love that shit! It doesnβt matter if you read them or not; just take them for an adventure and bring them back whenever theyβre due!
For public libraries, one of the ways we secure funding year to year is lending. Governments donβt want to fund more books if theyβre not being used and the way we measure use is by issues. Regardless of whether you read it or not, whether you have it for a day or a month, if you issue it to your library card, we get the stats! It makes the library look good!
Help your local library; get books out even if you know you canβt read them all!
