Granted, that should be allowed but you would think they would have laptops or something for checkout so you could go somewhere quiet in the library and do actual work.

Same up here...half the people you see on computers up here will be playing solitare or other games.

ha-ha

yes, I read. I read more than you'd think as well, its one of my favorite things to do.

PV, the library lacks a TON of significant literature. I really like reading from the 60's-70's counter culture, and they had zero works by Kinsey or Hoffman.

They have a decent selection of Mailer and Vonnegut tho, i was surprised by that.

I love to read, too. I just can't find the time anymore with all the helping and traveling I do associated with my dad's health.

Maybe someone took Hoffman up on one of his book titles.

I have read some of his stuff years ago. He Could be interesting then goofy. I dunno If you could call me a fan. Got interested in beatniks a few yrs ago like Kerouac, Burroughs and Neal Cassidy. I think that came from reading the elctric kool acid test. I cant cant remember what it was
