Of course, probably the *prime* reason why I hate even *going* to the library is that it is such a PAIN. Gotta unplug the scooter, load the scooter into the truck, get into the truck, drive to the library, circle for hours while trying to find a handicapped parking spot (Grumble. Grumble. Makes NO sense to have just two spots - one of which *I* can't use because that puts my driver door where some car will be parked too close for me to get in and out.), park and unload the scooter, scooter to the doors, wait until someone notices that there's a person there who CAN'T get the frikkin' doors open while on a scooter, mumble through the two whole aisles that are far enough apart for *my* scooter to reach...
And for all that aggravation and hassle, nine times out of ten, the *e-books* I like aren't available! No thank you. But if I'm going to waste all that gas and time for no reasonable return I'd rather just cough up the money for the purchase of the ebooks.
Do I think that libraries are a 'good thing'? Sure. If you're fit or if the libraries really *are* handicapped-friendly.
