When I was a little little, my grandma always took me to the library and always let me check out my favorite book - The Brownies. (I own a copy now.)

It was my favorite place to go as a kid, as a teen, as an adult, and now it's my favorite place to work. #ReasonstoLoveLibraries

When I was a kid, my dad took me to the big library downtown most Saturdays. It was one of the best memories of my life.

As a young mother, I walked to the library and my own have similarly fond memories.

Google,bing, firefox are all shit for search engines anymore. I suggest making note of places to find good information that is not linked to some sort of ecommerce. Where do you find information you can rely on? And are libraries on your list? #reasonstolovelibraries 📚💙 🪄

That sounds like an incredible resource! It's amazing to see archives like NAMOSRL preserving and providing access to such a diverse range of materials on Pagan and occult disciplines. Places like that are true treasures for anyone exploring these paths. #reasonstolovelibraries

Omgosh such a great point. I love how much has been digitized, which expanded access to so many who might otherwise not be able to read so many great books, old and new, banned or not. #reasonstolovelibraries
