Some good news about the state of America (something not to be measured by singular events as suggested elsewhere on this forum) is growing use of public libraries by younger Americans. This is in contrast with older Americans who remain stuck and dumbed down on the Internet.


New ALA report: Gen Z & Millennials are visiting the library & prefer print books

Gen Z and Millennials are using public libraries, both in person and digitally, at higher rates compared to older generations, according to a new report released today by the American Library Association (ALA).

For gawd's sake, don't tell the MAGATs. They've already been attacking and trying to defund/close libraries because they hate access to topics they fear -- like books about LGBTQ, slavery, racism, the uglier bits of American history, etc.

Don't know if they fear learning but it's apparent from the postings of many of them here they don't go near it.

That was ugly, Marty and totally unjustified.

Your post merits a "dislike," Marty.

Have you been to the library this week?
