I don't have a daughter yet, so can't really comment on that perspective. But I've had a great experience with the SF public libraries. I visit the main one near Civic Center pretty often just to use the printer, and honestly I just love being around stacks of books. I haven't been since the pandemic, but the one in Chinatown was always packed with kids studying together, and it was clean.
I grew up going to libraries in the suburbs of Chicago and Philadelphia. Those are some of my best memories. I wouldn't have developed the computer skills or built the career I have today if I hadn't seen other kids, a little older than me, using them. Just being able to spend hours in a quiet, safe space where people are learning for fun— I think it changed my life.
