< the library

~detritus

There is no library where I live ;-( so I do the bulk of my reading on a screen. I was considering getting an ereader because the eink devices are so much easier on the eyes, but in my experience they are awful for reading pdfs, which is how most of the books I like to read are available.

I used to love going to the university library and I would spend hours there looking through the available books, I would find my way to a table carrying a big stack of books which I already had on my hard drive, but I LOVED the whole experience of sitting there with actual books, and an open notebook, surrounded by other people studying in complete silence.

There was a library in the city very close to where I used to live but it had some beeping and other kinds of sounds in the background which were a bit too soothing and I always ended up falling asleep.

Ah, libraries.
