I lived near a library when I was younger and whenever I visited I always thought the librarian hated me for some reason. I went regularly every school year and I always thought that she was being rude to me. When I went to that library for the last time my mom told her that we would be moving a few hours away and she said “I’m so glad I got to see you grow up” and was super nice to me when I took the time to talk with her. I feel so childish for just jumping to conclusions and thinking she disliked me for something I don’t even remember. We still keep and touch and she even mails me cards for my birthday and holidays!!💖
I love this video! Libraries are really great and Booktubers rarely discuss the need to keep these libraries alive. I'm a new Book Tuber and I'm gonna try and check out my local library because of this! Thank you!
Mine does too! My library also has a pretty comprehensive website and I can just check it out anytime I'm wondering about community activities or if there's any new programs. Usually there's stuff I wouldn't even think of. It's great.
omg this is so important!! libraries are so important!! as a low-income person who loves to read i genuinely don't know what i would do without the library. thank you for using your platform for this kind of thing. ❤️
THIS! Working at a library I have so many people come in and say “this is so different from the libraries I grew up with!” And I’m like YES! The library’s purpose is to serve the community, we have changed with the times.
I’m so proud of how this came out! The animation is so cute, diverse, and heart warming, and each librarians’ answers are so helpful and assuring! You did a great job!
When I was a kid, I thought the library was magical. It felt almost like a place of worship to me (and I’m religious, so I’m not saying that lightly). So much possibility just waiting, patient but expectant, on the shelves. So many possible lives to slip into. The victory and defeat, the love and hate.... I’d mourn and celebrate with the characters in turn and it was like having the most reliable friends to turn to, no matter what. When I was able to get a permit, I mostly got it and learned to drive so I could go to the library. It was my haven, my sanctuary. I moved to a bigger town, but the main library is on the other side of town and the branch closer to me is open only on normal work hours during the week and Saturday morning from 9-12. It hurts me that so many people won’t get the opportunity to stroll through the shelves at their leisure. By 11 on a Saturday, the shelves are pretty depressing. I’ve since gotten on several ebook lists that alert me when books are on sale for the day and I’ve had Audible for ten years, and I buy sparingly to increase a core collection (hardbacks; my vice) so I have a lot of books to choose from anyway. But it just... makes me sad that I don’t have a magic place like that now, to just commune with myself and all those adventures waiting to be picked up and embarked upon. When I do go, I inevitably feel bad because I can afford to get some books here and there, and if I rent out that copy, that’s maybe someone’s shot at getting it. Maybe they hardly ever get to leave work an hour early, but because of a doctor’s appointment they have some time before closing. Or they’d pick it up on Saturday when they can sprint in with everyone else on their day off, but it’s not there because I’m camping out on it. Now that I’m learning Spanish and would love some books that have an English and Spanish version, I’m going to be in there more. But I still feel a bit conflicted. I’d be swiping some middle schooler’s Spanish copy of Matilda or something. I wish our branch was less stressed, and then not only would we have more options without making an order, but we’d not feel conflicted. I hope the next time I move, I find a town with a wonderful and gorgeous library that is well staffed and stocked. It would be a joy and a pleasure to roam the isles again like when I was a little girl. I know these magic places still exist and are even flourishing. I just have to stumble into the right wardrobe to find my way back to my literary Narnia, most likely when I least expect it to appear.
DO NOT feel bad about checking out books. You have no idea if that book has moved or not. And it not moving means it will probably get purged sooner rather then later. Besides, every circulation helps fund the library. Numbers mean a lot when it comes to funding. Does your library have interloan? That's another option.
I think what these librarians are getting at is: libraries are the physical centres of knowledge of a people, and as new methods of learning this knowledge become widespread, such a centre must adapt. Great video and love the illustrations. They look like something you'd see in an illustrated book, which gives me all sorts of warm fuzzies inside.
My town's public library is within biking distance and they have a big collection of DVDs and movies. Apart from the books, I love borrowing classics films from the 80s and 90s. It's a great way to experience great films without commercials on tv, or having to subscribe to a streaming service. Blockbuster may be gone, but libraries are keeping what made video rental stores great alive today.
Can you add closed caption on this one? I love your channel but I really need closed caption to get what you're talking about because I'm deaf. Thanks!!
@@singingthere6729 I study that too (but in another country I suppose) I learn a lot about Information itself (how to find it and how to make it findable), libraries and how that system works, copyright, multimedia, marketing and pr. We also have many IT courses where we learn html, css and python. We learn how to structure information (like in Thesauri) and of course we learn how to help users. There is probably way much more but that is what popped into my head just now.
Yeeess! As someone who’s worked in a library my entire working life, this is something I wish more people would realise. Libraries have and are evolving, we’re no longer that “hush hush” space; We’re a social arena, for people of all walks of life. At my library we do live music during lunch, every now and then, and that’s something I often tell others who might still have that old, narrow view of libraries to kind of “burst their bubble” a bit. We literally do everything from making food, and hosting events to helping disabled people take of their jacket, or do some heavy investigating to try and find that book you loved when you were twelve 💙.
I love this! As a librarian I get asked all the time what it is that I do! People are so unaware of all the different things that libraries offer, not just at the public level but across all sectors.
tbh,librarians are one of the sweetest people in the world. Our librarian at school was actually one of our friends. She helped me in my studies and I promised her that I’ll study hard. I love her,our whole school loves her. rest in peace ms.Nida, I promise that I’ll study hard and graduate college in the future
Libraries have always been my refuge. If I could do my life over again, I would go into Library Science...but in the meantime, much respect to you librarians for all you do for the community. ❤️
I adore this video with all of my heart. As a young person who wants to be a librarian, this honestly is the video that needs to get shared and spread like wildfire.
THIS! I work in a library in the UK and literally this is what I'm constantly telling people because libraries are amazing spaces and offer so much! For free! People need to use their libraries otherwise they'll close due to government funding cuts (because libraries are easy to close as it's something, sadly, most people won't notice). Libraries are constantly changing so they can stay relevant to the communities they serve.
In eighth grade, I had moved in from abroad, so I ended up spending at the very least, half an hour every day at our school library... Would come in every day during lunch. After school, I went to the public library a couple of times, but truly our school library was my home. I learnt a lot of this that year. Thank you so, so much Mrs. F and Mrs. W. I truly adored you guys... Ha, By the end of the year, I would recommend books to kids coming into the library, so the interview thing you mentioned. Some of my best memories. One day, maybe, I'll go back and volunteer or work in a library myself, in some capacity. It's too much of home for me not to.
I worked in a library for an internship three years ago (I’m studying Librarianship and Information Science in Warsaw), so from the perspective of the librarian - I’M ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THIS VIDEO! Thank you so much for creating it ☁️💓📚
As a public librarian, thank you for making this video! We are not just books, we are community resources! Also most libraries have their summer reading programs going on right now so sign up and support us! 😊😊♥️
I love my library. All the librarians know my son by name and talk to him. He just got his card today and checked out his first set of movies. In the kids section at the library they a ton of toys for kids to play with while parents look at books, read or work on computers. One of our librarians said she loves when when she heard kids being loud because she hated the "quiet in the library" stigma. I tell everyone to utilize their library. It's a dying resource. There are people who really need them and if people don't patronize them they go away.
I also realized how different libraries and how much they do are depending on the country and size of the city! Like my home library is in a German small town, they do have online services but very limited and also only a few events because its only a small town, but when I then moved to New Orleans in the US for a period of my life, there the library had any book I could think of, locations all over the city, an app, a lot of free online streaming stuff, free classes, like I did a journaling workshop, and you could even get free tickets to otherwise expensive museums through the library! SO amazing!
As someone who works at a library, this is all so true and such a great, informative video! Sometimes it's hard to get adults to come out to programs (often because they're not aware that they exist) and so it's nice to see the information that libraries are more than just books being spread!
Yes! This is amazing! I'm a person who volunteers at a library, I can tell you that the most important thing our librarians would want you to know, what a lot of the librarians mentioned here, is that libraries are definitely more than just books and a lot of people don't know about all of the resources they can provide.
Libraries are the best things 💖 and you can get a temporary library card if you are living in an area for a short amount of time! Im only living in my current place for the summer and I still got a library card and I’m so incredibly happy about it!
Little mole with braille!! All these things are why I used to study library sciences. I decided against it as a career for myself but it taught me so so much about libraries and it's been great
What I discovered just recently from my library technician program was that on the library's website there are databases (which are basically just websites that need a subscription to access) they have a lot of information. All you need is a library card and you can access them. The ones in my library have general information which you can search articles for academic purposes, you can learn a new language, some others are subject specific. Just take a look at your library's website under the databases tab to see what you have, it could help a lot.
I wish the libraries in my country were like this. Yes, libraries in the biggest cities are like sort of like this, but in my town and many other towns they don’t even open regularly, they have almost no books, and the ones they have are outdated, no activities, no other media, no help, no anything.
sometimes im scared to ask librarians for help but every time i get the courage to go and ask for help theyre always so nice and caring :) i hope i can volunteer or even work for my library one day!!!!
Yes to all this! I don't think people realize how many and what a wide variety of programs libraries have. I take my kids to free drop in activities at the library all the time, and my library has groups for people to meet and do things unrelated to books like knit, play board games, learn computer skills, etc. People really need to check out their local library's website and see how many great things they offer.
I had to work in a library at my old high school as a substitute, and it was the most grueling BUT gratifying work at the same time. I loved my 2-3 weeks as a librarian helper. I had to shelve books, organize books, put barcodes on them, and so much more. Towards the end, I was giving the stink eye to students who wouldn't put books away or put in the wrong spot. LOL. I think of that particular assignment quite fondly because the librarians were so nice as well.
im not a librarian but i did work in a library for a while and i wish people knew the pushing the books back on the shelves isnt actually as helpful as they think and we have to fix it so we can see the numbers, bless em for trying though!
I work in an academic library, so a little different to a public library, but this video is so accurate to what I see every day. I'm not a librarian so when I started working in the library I was like "why do we do this? It'snot really our responsibility?" And the only answer was "We just need to help people". Librarians are special people and we need them in the world.
When I was a kid I used to go to the library all the time for books. Then we moved across the world and I had to get used to libraries where the English section was only one shelf, both in my school and in the public library. For a while I stopped going completely. During college the school library was a great resource for studying and research books, but for probably 10 years I didn't step foot in a public library. A few months ago I started studying for the legal bar, and I discovered the massive public library in my city. I've been going there almost every day for months. They have an enormous selection of books, dozens of computers, helpful librarians. They have a kitchenette to make coffee, clean bathroom, nice couches, little study cubbies... I have completely fallen in love. It's also great to see the different types of people who go there. I feel like it's this underrated gem that I just discovered even though I've lived in this city for two years. I know that even after I finish studying I'll continue to go back for the events they hold and the resources they have. It's also so nice to have a place you can sit for 10 hours without having to pay any money whatsoever.
Beautiful collaboration!! I love the library and have been taking advantage of my libraries since I was a kid. I wish people knew libraries have grown and changed so much over the past years. They are more than just reading, and such a special community resources 💜
I really enjoyed this video! I don't know if I mentioned this already, but I'm really liking the direction that you're taking with your channel. I love libraries so much. I used to volunteer at my local library with homework help and I saw other volunteers who helped immigrants with their citizenship tests and with English language classes. Libraries are such an important part of our community and I love that the resources are free and accessible.
this was so helpful, i’m 21 and dropped out of high school in 10th grade and now want a ged and I was stressed about buying all these materials but watching this reminded i’m sure they probably have what I need :)
This video is lovely! I loved listening to the librarians and how eager they are to help people. I could tell how passionate they are about their job. The illustrations were so cute ❤
This made my heart so warm. 😭 I have a deep seeded dream to be a librarian, but chose a different path for school. What I wouldn't do to go back in time!!
I work as a youth coordinator at my library. And I love this video so much💕. I agree that a lot of people overlook the library thinking it is just books. These illustrations were adorable by the way
Omg I love this video so much. Libraries have been a blessing for my education. As a student with a small attention span, my public library puts me into a mindset to really get stuff done. The last time I was there, there was an older lady tutoring a younger woman on English and it was so cute :,)
I'm super late to seeing this, but as someone who's just graduated from a Library & Information Technician program and recently gotten a job at my local public library, I appreciate this video so, so much!
Thank you so much for this! I’m getting my masters degree in Library Science and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s a cool time to be a librarian-the field is changing and people would be surprised how awesome their public library can be. I’m hoping to work in a school library which has a lot of exciting aspects to it as well ☺️☺️
i love this so much!! & the illustrations have me melting bc they're so pure & perfect.
Same here, they were so well done!
Oh hey jesse.. i'm a subscriber

Well thet do kind of kill alot of trees on this planet but other than that they're cool
@@zenzonerzz4789 nah eating meat and palm oil destroy way more trees than books
Im not denying that,that is true. There can be multiple readons why somethings is getting destroyed XD.
There is a lot of great things on Planet Earth.

The librarians at my library: “We offer free audiobooks through Hoopla! Do not pay a corporation like Audible when Hoopla is free!!!”
Omg I use overdrive through my library and I've read more than 70 books without paying anything. Libraries are magic.
If you go to a huge branch the wait times are weeks long so I can see it both ways. As for me, physical books all the way!
anastasiagirl1342 Yesss!! I love Hoopla!!! ☺️
@@Buenanueva1 you right. I always put in a hold and find other books to read in the mean time
I use Hoopla and other library resources but they dont always have what I want.
And sometimes their vendors dont either.

Just take a look at your library's website under the databases tab to see what you have, it could help a lot.
My first job was the library and somewhere I always go to for comfort so i loved this video so much. :)
Ariel, you're lit.
I wish the libraries in my country were like this.
Yes, libraries in the biggest cities are like sort of like this, but in my town and many other towns they don’t even open regularly, they have almost no books, and the ones they have are outdated, no activities, no other media, no help, no anything.
sometimes im scared to ask librarians for help but every time i get the courage to go and ask for help theyre always so nice and caring :) i hope i can volunteer or even work for my library one day!!!!
Libraries are so valuable. My friend group hangs out at the library because there’s so much stuff to do there or check out and take home.
Yes to all this! I don't think people realize how many and what a wide variety of programs libraries have. I take my kids to free drop in activities at the library all the time, and my library has groups for people to meet and do things unrelated to books like knit, play board games, learn computer skills, etc. People really need to check out their local library's website and see how many great things they offer.
This is such a cute video!! Especially with the illustrations it’s like a picture book in video form.
I had to work in a library at my old high school as a substitute, and it was the most grueling BUT gratifying work at the same time. I loved my 2-3 weeks as a librarian helper. I had to shelve books, organize books, put barcodes on them, and so much more. Towards the end, I was giving the stink eye to students who wouldn't put books away or put in the wrong spot. LOL. I think of that particular assignment quite fondly because the librarians were so nice as well.
im not a librarian but i did work in a library for a while and i wish people knew the pushing the books back on the shelves isnt actually as helpful as they think and we have to fix it so we can see the numbers, bless em for trying though!
I work in an academic library, so a little different to a public library, but this video is so accurate to what I see every day. I'm not a librarian so when I started working in the library I was like "why do we do this? It'snot really our responsibility?" And the only answer was "We just need to help people". Librarians are special people and we need them in the world.
As someone who has spent many hours of my life in a library this makes really happy
3:01 sounds so fun! :D
When I was a kid I used to go to the library all the time for books. Then we moved across the world and I had to get used to libraries where the English section was only one shelf, both in my school and in the public library. For a while I stopped going completely. During college the school library was a great resource for studying and research books, but for probably 10 years I didn't step foot in a public library. A few months ago I started studying for the legal bar, and I discovered the massive public library in my city. I've been going there almost every day for months. They have an enormous selection of books, dozens of computers, helpful librarians. They have a kitchenette to make coffee, clean bathroom, nice couches, little study cubbies... I have completely fallen in love. It's also great to see the different types of people who go there. I feel like it's this underrated gem that I just discovered even though I've lived in this city for two years. I know that even after I finish studying I'll continue to go back for the events they hold and the resources they have. It's also so nice to have a place you can sit for 10 hours without having to pay any money whatsoever.
I'm fortunate enough to work in a library, and I agree, they're AWESOME
This. All of this. As a librarian I can’t love this hard enough!!!
I’m studying to be a school librarian now. Love your video
Beautiful collaboration!! I love the library and have been taking advantage of my libraries since I was a kid. I wish people knew libraries have grown and changed so much over the past years. They are more than just reading, and such a special community resources 💜
Omg i clicked so fast. i got a library card last year and it was the best decision ever 💛
MsKaykay12 Yessss Im so happy for you ❤️ thank you for supporting your community ❤️
Love it! I am an educator and librarian. I feel just like these professionals.
Libraries are amazing!!!
I really enjoyed this video! I don't know if I mentioned this already, but I'm really liking the direction that you're taking with your channel.
I love libraries so much. I used to volunteer at my local library with homework help and I saw other volunteers who helped immigrants with their citizenship tests and with English language classes. Libraries are such an important part of our community and I love that the resources are free and accessible.
this is one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen! thank you for making this
Glad to have found your channel. I love my local library and love to support it.
Libraries are awesome places, soo many resources available!
Absolutely love this video! Great way to inform more people about the many great resources libraries have to offer!
Thank you for this video! I start work at a library soon and im really excited but a bit nervous as to what I should expect and this video helped!
this was so helpful, i’m 21 and dropped out of high school in 10th grade and now want a ged and I was stressed about buying all these materials but watching this reminded i’m sure they probably have what I need :)
I cannot love this enough! I love my local library!
I joined my library last summer and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I *love* my library!
This video is lovely! I loved listening to the librarians and how eager they are to help people. I could tell how passionate they are about their job.
The illustrations were so cute ❤
This video is so important! Libraries are one of the few spaces in the United States that does not require any fee to have access to their services!
This made my heart so warm. 😭 I have a deep seeded dream to be a librarian, but chose a different path for school. What I wouldn't do to go back in time!!
I work as a youth coordinator at my library. And I love this video so much💕. I agree that a lot of people overlook the library thinking it is just books. These illustrations were adorable by the way
I love libraries! It's so much fun going to the library.
Omg I love this video so much. Libraries have been a blessing for my education. As a student with a small attention span, my public library puts me into a mindset to really get stuff done. The last time I was there, there was an older lady tutoring a younger woman on English and it was so cute :,)
I don’t usually comment but this video is so perfect. The animation, the voices! Every choice is so well made. And also libraries rock!
I was a librarian for a month and stil appreciate them a lot.
As someone who works in a library with many wonderful librarians, I love this video 💚
I'm a librarian and this warms my heart! ♥️♥️
This is so cute! Libraries are such an important place and they offer so much!
I'm super late to seeing this, but as someone who's just graduated from a Library & Information Technician program and recently gotten a job at my local public library, I appreciate this video so, so much!
Thank you so much for this! I’m getting my masters degree in Library Science and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s a cool time to be a librarian-the field is changing and people would be surprised how awesome their public library can be. I’m hoping to work in a school library which has a lot of exciting aspects to it as well ☺️☺️
