Indiana Jones’s and Doom are both stub disks. If Sony can use two disks you can too!

As someone who loves to read and to think I agree but at the same time I know it would be a waste of the town’s finances. People here don’t read, for example my grandfather told me not long ago that “he hates” reading. How can you justify the expense of a library that no one would ever visit?

The schools have OK libraries (by our standards, for someone from a city they probably look like a closet) and when I was a student I was one of the very few that ever used it for actually reading. Everyone else just used it as a social space and to watch YouTube.

I guess by shifting it to be a resource for things the community could use? Libraries can be so much more than books.

Not that it's cheap or easy.
