I'm in uni, I go to the library several times a week. Before that I mostly visited it once a month or so. Drop off the old books and picked up some new ones.

I can find most of the things I want to read on the internet. I can download them and read them from my computer, thus making the effort to go to the library a bit bleh.

Don't you hate reading off from PC screen? I usually even print longer papers I have to read just for comfort.

Well yeah sometimes I don't like to. I print documents out as well, just not as frequently as I used to.

 

But most of the time, looking at a PC screen, or even my phones screen doesn't bother me.

I'm a terrible person and torrent books, then read them on my Kindle. If I like a book a lot, then I buy it.

 

I also buy used books from Powell's. I should be more of a library person, but I'm not terribly impressed with their selection, even though we have a good sized library.

I buy books, and every now and then I go to the library to find hard to get ones. Or papers.

I sometimes like to go to local college libraries to get work done on the laptop, but I haven't taken a book out of a library since I was in college.  I'm a book hoarder, I always buy them (unless they are given to me).  There are stacks of books all over my apartment.  I mean, not on the floor or anything, but I have a couple of bookshelves and a growing pile atop my dresser.  Plus now I'm starting to accrue them on the iPad too, since I've learned there are lots of free books available online.  So yeah.  I have a lot of books.

I used to go to the library a lot, but now a days I don't really; it got expensive and the computer is otherwise free, well sort of. >.<
