The Public Library in Almere Haven is going to move to another building and therefore they had a sale of excrescent books. SC caught me browsing together with a former colleague at the right who once was the head of this library. Both retired now we were a bit nostalgic this library will be closed and reopened in a much smaller place with less books. That's the way it goes....
Gosto muito destas pequenas feiras de livros usados.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenUm abraço e continuação de uma boa semana.
That's sad that the library will be smaller...
BeantwoordenVerwijderenStrangely enough here in Perth a new big and better library is being built in the city (main library).
Some of our libraries now promote online access and link into the newest technology. I had a book signing in my hometown several months ago, and since I hadn't been in it since I was a child, it appeared to have shrunken in size. Too funny.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAre libraries becoming a victim of the Internet?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAs long as there will still be another library, even if it is a wee bit smaller. You will laugh when you see my post tomorrow :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI'm sure the new library will be even better than the old but change always comes at a price. Nice the old books will find new homes and new uses.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGelukkig blijft er nog wel een bibliotheek, al is ie dan kleiner.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenSo it goes.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOur library continuously sells books that re not circulating. Then they have a book sale room for all the donations of books o the library.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOur public library has books for sale as well.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat is a little sad. I am lucky to have a branch of our main library just 5 minutes from my house.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenEveryone looks very serious about picking out their books. I love going to library book sales. We have them here twice a year.Books are donated and it is a lovely way for the library to make money. I really like the lighting in your photo.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat must be sad for you but I hope you got some good reading material.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenMy husband cannot walk pass a table of secondhand books without buying - I can imagine how you must have felt very nostalgic that the library is closing and moving.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOur library have an annual event like this..... and I love it!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt is possible to find treasures for a very good price.
Did you find something nice?
Let's hope libraries do not become obsolete.
