It is the same in South Africa. You will get libraries at the universities and colleges for their students. Some schools may also have it but most of them is phasing it out for computer centers.
As a normal citizen I can not longer say that "I am going to the library" as what we did many years ago.
We also have a lot of libraries which were burned down during riots and which were just never replaced.
Hence that I have written that I have discovered a gem!
Thank you for engaging with my post!!!
