Letter: What I Love About Libraries
In the spirit of 'Love Your Library Week,' library Director Lisa Jacobs shares her thoughts on why she loves Riverhead Free Library.
In honor of at , I thought I’d share my favorite things about libraries. So, let me count the ways…
- Welcoming, friendly people.
- Lots of books, print and digital.
- Programs to keep me learning. For free.
- Newly-released DVDs. For free.
- The sights and sounds of happy kids, having fun.
- Free computers, for when my printer or Internet access goes on the fritz. Hey, it happens.
- A place that not only accepts, but actually welcomes teens. I used to be one of them, you know.
- 24/7 access to digital services…articles from databases, reserves/renewals, ebooks and more.
- Beautiful outdoor public space.
Gosh, there’s so much more. These are just off the top of my head. What do you love about YOUR library? Please stop in to the Riverhead Free Library this week (February 12-18) to fill out a Valentine heart for display!
