"I have always imagined that paradise will be a kind of library." โ Jorge Luis Borges
I've been fortunate enough to visit a few on your list and to spend a fair amount of time working in one โ and doubly lucky to hear Borges speak and to meet him when I was in college!!

Know what else is great about the Brooklyn Public Library? They were among the first in 2022 to join up for Books Unbanned, to resist coordinated efforts to censor reading material, especially for teens โ and they're still at it! https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned
Know a teen anywhere in the US between ages 13-21? They can get a free eCard to access the full BPL eBook/audiobook collection as well as their learning databases: https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned/get-a-card

In April 2022, Brooklyn Public Library joined those fighting for the rights of teens nationwide to read what they like, discover themselves, and form their own opinions. Inspired by the American Library Association's Freedom to Read Statement, Books Unbanned is a response to an increasingly coordinated and effective effort to remove books from library shelves.
@frederic If you can't afford a garage like this to build your own furtinure for under 50 bucks (hinestly, who can!?)...
Have you thought about finding likeminded individuals to found a maker space or community garage with shared tools or to create a community tool library sharing group. I think, we should do more of this #CommunityBuilding #LibrariesRock #SharingIsCaring kind of stuff these days. We don't need to buy or own everything for everyone. We can share tools and costs.
