Living in a very rural community, we are locally served by a bookmobile. The bookmobile is decently stocked with a wide variety of books for all ages, as well as cd's and dvd's but visits only once a month. There is no computer on board for the childrens use (and no wireless network within 60 miles, even if there was).
The nearest county library is about 25 miles away. It is fairly well stocked for the local rural communities but could use more in-house reference books, school books, childrens books and reference-genre books that could be available for checkout. I'd like to see at least two computers added for the childrens use.
The school library could use both books and computers and all variety of learning resources. (Our school is small, with each grade having one classroom).
On a personal level, I'd like to see more genealogy reference books; there are several for our local area but none whatsoever for outlying counties or other states.

I incredibly have 2 favourites, one is excellent small although so I in basic terms pass in there to %. up reservations. the single I usually pass to is in the city centre and next to the entertainment centre so whilst it constantly has a honest crowd surfing, it is a low hum in environment. Downstairs are issues like conventional fiction, CDs and flicks and upstairs is the place you may get admission to documents and academic texts, take a seat and study in a thoroughly hushed vast room with grand o.ok.desks. there's an surprising selection of persons because of the fact my community is distinctive. maximum persons seem to pass to apply the desktops or take out videos [its great because of the fact they do no longer fee for CDs and flicks] however the hardcore teachers are scuttling approximately upstairs. My council is extremely professional-library and there is often stuff occurring to sell it. it is a provider I attempt to no longer take with none attention, notably with a majority of those cuts. it is an previous Victorian public construction [jogs my memory of Westminster] and has a great clock outdoors that is going off each hour; available for no longer letting the day slip away between bookshelves. Love my library. :')

To get away from the 'quiet old fuddy-duddy library where only pensioners and geeks would be seen dead' image.
