I visited my local library at the weekend, on a whim. (The weekend before, I'd been to the British Library for the first time, so I guess this inspired me.) The computing sections at public libraries do not tend to inspire me, on the whole. Southampton's is actually relatively good - there are four tall bookcases assigned to computing, although one is introductory IT (Word and Excel), and another seems to be assigned to graphic design (Photoshop)....

This evening I visited Rugby Library. Apparently I had not used my Warwickshire library card for 991 days - that was from when I lived in Leamington Spa. It is probably quite a while longer since I last borrowed books from Rugby. To be honest, I was quite fond of the old Victorian library building. Unfortunately, that one closed in 1997 and was demolished. And I suppose the £5.5m new one looks nicer....
