'We know that a library is so much more than a building full of books… a book is so much more than pages full of words.…
Do governments have a duty of care to their citizens and as such should they provide free access to books in the form of libraries?
My answer is: Yes.
I stringly agree with the point of that governments have a duty of care to their citizens and as such should they provide free access to books in the form of libraries. Books are such amazing things that you can learn every piece of information you want. And libraries are the places that provide books, to let people think creatively, reason critically, learn enthusiastically, and live ethically. Internet is a effective way to search information, but from the books, you can get unique ideas and thinks. All in all, I can't think of a reason that the government should close down the store of wisdom: Libraries. Without libraries, people may lost connection to the world. Without libraries, poor children will never have any chance to learn. Without libraries, the whole world will change due to the miss of wisdom and educate.
I also felt chill when I heard this message. The government has no reason to shut down a place like this. "There is no friend as loyal as a book. " -- by Ernest Hemingway. Why the government are getting rid of humans' loyal friends? Any way, I hope that governments support the libraries more than destroing them. I hope, one day, I can see that every one has a smily face in and out the library.
