Shiga Prefectural Library

The library is closed, and I can't do what I want to do, so I'm inconvenient. Although restricting access is unavoidable, why not stop lending? Depending on how you do it, you can rent as much as you want. The declaration of liberty of the library states that "every nation has the right to obtain and use the materials it needs at any time. Can we say that the current library has this responsibility?

I often check new books, but there are related books that are introduced to Marxism and the Communist Party declaration every week (it seems that it is not a requested book because there is no reservation) and it is difficult to understand. Of course, I'm not saying you shouldn't buy it, but are you over-allocating your budget to certain political ideas? If you have been selected according to the selection guidelines, you should not review the guidelines themselves. I understand that it is a prefectural library, so you need to buy books as materials, but you already have enough socialist books. There are many good books published from different perspectives, so I would like you to consider making a more balanced selection (especially in social and political fields). Another one. It looks like you purchased the book you requested and prepared it. (Thank you.) There are some books that have a place in the library even though the publication month is quite new. When asked, "If a request book does not take over the selection requirements, it may be placed in the library from the beginning. It is not immediately obvious why the book is in the library." That means that the library side decides whether or not the contents of the book are suitable for open shelving. Of course, books that are rarely borrowed or those that are years old since publication need to be moved to the library, but the books I mentioned are neither expensive nor books about discovering Japanese history and have strong current affairs is. Because of this, I can't help but wonder if the librarian's personal values ​​are reflected in the decision on where to store library books that are public. He told me that he would take it up at the meeting, but he is still in the library. I want you to manage transparent books.

You can read the book without feeling crowded because the book is placed in a spacious space. The lending period is 3 weeks, but in my case I dare to set up a period of specialized books etc. so that I can read the book completely, so I borrow and read the field of interest first. You can realize once again the importance of public institutions that can be used for free. However, the latest and popular books are often borrowed, so it may be better to buy them. As an aside, the surrounding area is recommended for walking courses and running.

A library that is easy to reach from home is worth it.

It is an old building, but you can read books quietly. There are many books! If it's a car, I'll walk from the parking lot, so I'll go by bike or bike.
