The Close-by Place Where the Books Are
The city’s neighborhood libraries are needed more than they
The libraries aren’t open enough here. The old inner-ring
Cleveland suburb I lived in for over 25 years keeps these kinds of hours:
Monday-Saturday 9:00-9:00, Sunday 1:00-9:00. You do the math. New York’s not
even close. You wouldn’t think.
My neighborhood library is a great resource for me. I order
books frequently. And it’s two blocks away. I’d love for it to be open at 9:00
every day, and till 9:00 every night, even Sunday night. That would be great. Think
how students could use such hours. You’d go, if you knew such hours existed.
I wonder why New York is so puny about library hours. Did
you realize it was?
