Back in those days, I remembered of a mobile library (perpustakaan bergerak) going here and there.
Though it was small, it was fun back then to get inside those trailers filled with books
Yes. I remember those as well... But they STINK!!! Yucky, stuffy smell...!!!Though it was small, it was fun back then to get inside those trailers filled with books
Added on February 18, 2009, 9:50 amSerious questions:
- How often do you visit the library (public or education institution)?
Once a week... I'm doing my masters. Oh yeah, does visiting the library's online digital collection count as "visiting"???
- What were your usual reason to go to the library? (read? do homework? PC? sleep? dating? work? etc)
Homework, research, borrow books
- Do you read books in the library to study or do you read them because you are interested in those books?
I go mostly to do work, but when I get there, I tend to get sidetracked and read stuff/books I'm not supposed to. Like the other day, I was sourcing for "learning theories" at the library and spent about 1 hour reading a book about Sony SoundForge instead!
- Have you ever visit our National Library?
Yes, in my younger days I even joined their theatre/kid club.
- In your opinion, what is missing in majority of Malaysian libraries?
People. Cos people nowadays seem adamant not to read.
Non-serious question:
- Have you ever borrowed a book from a library?
Yes.
- Do you have a library card in your wallet/purse now?
My work pass doubles as a library card. Does that count??
- Do you still have a library book that you forgot to return long ago?
Yes... I still have some unreturned books on my table right now...
- Ever got locked in a library?
No. I locked myself in once when I was in highschool - I was a librarian, and it was one of those days.
- Ever got kicked out of a library?
No. I'd get the odd stare once in a while cos I'll always be the one who forgets to silent her handphone and library patrons all over KL are apparently very much disturbed by my ringtone choice of Bjork's Human Behaviour. Go figure.
