A Community Space

I moved to San Diego in 2022 because of the military and didn't really know anyone as I was raised on the East Coast. I was glad to find a calm place to go and kind of get a sense of community. My local library provided that much needed space. I am able to use the computers or bring my own and still get work done while not being alone. There librarians are always super nice and friendly. I enjoy the showcases they sometimes display- like for The Holocust Remembrance- which tell the lives of local residents. I also appreciate that they offer a place for the community to exchange ideas and voices through various programs.

Public Libraries are a sign of a healthy society

Public libraries play such an essential role in ensuring our public has free and accessible resources for learning and development. I am a huge fan of the California public library system. I have used them throughout my entire life to study and research. It’s also a way to ensure people and children who aren’t born into wealth have fair access to learning materials. More funds for our public infrastructure, less funds for billionaires and corporations!!!

Libby services are awesome!

I use Libby every day. It makes it so effortless to check out and return books. Especially because I have little kids so the digital version allow us to read more books.
