I spent countless hours wandering the stacks and reading in a cozy little nook no one ever visited. Slept there as well. Then senior year the library closed for remodeling. Never went back.

There's fantastic looking reading libraries all over NYC. the homeless don't really hang out in the great rooms so its actually very nice to be there. No distractions, the atmosphere and books surrounding the people give a greater sense of focus and purpose, as if you are seen, you cannot just fuck around or you start to notice your own actions.

Sometimes I read in my university library. Being surrounded by books is nice but the seating for the most part isn't very comfortable. The aesthetics can help you fall in love with a space, maybe get you started, but they only indirectly help you fall in love with whatever you're reading. When you're absorbed in a book you don't notice the library.

Honestly I prefer the top floor of another building on campus because it's high up, harder to find, and commands a view of the mountains. I pace during my breaks and for some reason a far vista stimulates me. Don't snooze on other public locations.

main rotunda of the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne

it's actually more crowded than this, packed full of tables and you can hardly walk in between, I suppose they cleaned it up a bit for this photo
lots of people reading and studying when I visited, which is nice
the main purpose of a library in this day and age I feel is to store old books, and to encourage education
in future I think libraries and museums should combine functions
and I feel strongly that there is something about being in the presence of great shelves of reference books that encourages students, and that it's something that nations should nurture

Never liked studying at libraries.
I don't know why. For some reason I always separated business and pleasure when it came to that.

Not that great actually. Too hot, too noisy, half tourists, I was there last month. Read a chapter and left. The other room of this building, Salle Labrouste, is much better, but access is only granted to researchers and PhD students.

University libraries are places with interesting dynamics. First, they're spaces where silence is the rule, meaning every chair scrape, phone notification, or sneeze can easily trigger laughter throughout the room. There's thus an underlying tension, rather uncomfortable, which somewhat inhibits immersing oneself fully in any mental activity. This same tension is found in any gathering where silence prevails: funerals, subway cars, classrooms, cathedrals. These are places where the sense of self dilutes into the aggregate of all present human consciousnesses, from which occasionally something larger than oneself emerges.

Regarding university libraries, this sensation remains relatively faint, partly due to the inauthentic presence of many individuals who are there more for the illusion of learning than to truly engage in learning. This explains the constant back-and-forth movements observed.

Another interesting aspect is the diversity of books. From one aisle to the next, you shift from an anthology of 18th-century French poetry to the sociology of beavers in aquatic environments. There truly is everything, both the worst and the best, which differs somewhat from standard bookstores that mostly carry good works (except for contemporary books, where the opposite tends to be true).

As for reading, if the book is good, then location doesnโ€™t truly matter, even if, personally, these conditions are suboptimalโ€”but I suppose this depends on personality. To me, the best place to read is a garden, as it is the only place where one can be simultaneously outdoors and indoors.

My uni library is comfy but not amazing like this. Itโ€™s always full at peak hours with lots of little nooks and conference tables. What I really love is browsing the archives though. Theyโ€™re sorted by year of archive which means all genres are mixed up (youโ€™re supposed to use the indexing computers to find shit), but I prefer the random encounters that pop up on the shelves.

I raise you the Douglas College New Westminster campus library. This is a rendering but all the promotional photos they took give the illusion that the library is well-lit (which it isnโ€™t). There is one window that looks out onto a brick wall. In the spring youโ€™d go in around 2:30, do an assignment, and it would be dark by the time you left. I went there before they renovated it and the dated gray-everything was far comfier. They also didnโ€™t bother upgrading the bathroom which has a stall that has been broken since I first started attending in 2015.

people don't read in university libraries they study for the test they have to pass so they can start getting paid and buy things.

majority of people are not interested in becoming knowledgeable and this rule doesn't stop applying when you pack them in a building and call it a university.

Depends what you enjoy, we have a bad version of most things. Hipster government worker shit isn't bad, there are a few good climbing gyms and ethnic restaurants.

I really like the locks downtown, it's the reason Ottawa exists and I like the history, but they aren't much to look at.

The Nature museum is pretty good, the other museums are all ok.

Nothing in Ottawa is exceptional or world class except the Rideau Canal, but only in the winter. Byward Market used to be alright but we've had a massive invasion of homeless and drug users (the scary kind) and even if you are comfortable in a sketchy environment it just ruins the atmosphere.

>Any of you adults read in a university library?
Back when I was in college it was THE BEST PART of being a student by far.
The library was huge, well stocked, well organized, with everything from comfy chairs in corners with natural light to tons of nooks with divider desk things that allows you to zone in when actually hardcore studying or working on projects.

It was so good dude. I enjoyed the school library so much. I would sometimes intentionally get classes wide apart from each other in time so that I could spend hours every day in the library.
I think all that time squinting over books degraded my eyesight though. That and a shit monitor I had a home. Around that time I had to get the strength of my glasses raised like 3 times in 3 years.

Never, since I've done almost all of my reading at home, on couches, in big soft recliners, or in bed, since about 1977. I'm not physically lazy by any stretch, but have never been able to read at a length or depth sufficient to enjoy it unless a certain level of sensory deprivation goes with it. I even identify a little with the image of Descartes working (if you can call it that) in a big soft bed, and write best in the lowest possible effort setup, beside a big screen using a wireless keyboard and mouse that works smoothly on sheets. I suppose my handwriting, seldom as I use it now, is best described as vertical capitals loosened and corroded by their use mostly in notes to self, and such.

*I did take to a certain chair in the reading room of a big municipal library about a mile from me around 2013, but that was mostly for downloading,. It was a nice chair, like all 9 or so in that room, soft yet skinned in neoprene in an oddly fine print. Wonder where they got those, since I've never seen anything like them before or since.

That's either an older European uni or one of the few nicer American ones.

Most look like this >>24456793, ugly modernized crap. They're also typically empty during the day and full of people in the afternoon or night working on group projects or just fucking around.

But, some of them do have small sections in the stacks that are meant for reading and kinda nice and isolated.

When I was in college I would go to the tallest level and into the far corner, behind the bookshelves, where there were beanbags. I would do my homework and read and decompress away from people there. It was comfy as hell.
