- CuriouslyC 2y agoLibraries are huge net wins for society. If they were just meeting spaces with free computer/internet access that'd be enough to justify their existence as a service to low income individuals and the community. They're so much more though - they're a nexus for events, classes and social activism while housing a useful cache of culture. Even if the internet has all the information and more, the library offers curation and an honest perspective which the internet sorely needs.
