Library Background Noise for Relaxation

[@candiegirll]

This helps lighten the crushing feeling of being alone. Thank you.

[@cleoh666]

me rn haha, I research from home and it gets so lonely >.

[@MrDaredevilfly]

Oh god lol

[@coolbecky121]

I laughed but also same...

[@Canyoudigityesyoucan]

Hi =D

[@LadyTanyaNY]

Candace Robinson - There are a lot of other good videos like this. Look up "ASMR," which is a category/genre of videos that make you feel like you're in another place! I especially like the Harry Potter ones because the videos make you feel like you're in a room/scene from the movies. They are really comforting when you're home alone. There are a lot of good nature videos, too, like videos of the interior of a cabin during snowfall!!

[@ThatFinnishKid27]

Thank you for this. Music is too distracting but silence drives me crazy. You have saved my essay!!

[@duffthepsych]

Woohoo! I hope it went well for you :)

[@Uroboro_Djinn]

Not to be rude but...why didn't you visit a real library? o.O

[@ThatFinnishKid27]

Gameshunter3012 Because everyone else goes to the library during finals week too and then I might as well be trying to write a paper in a middle school cafeteria.

[@Uroboro_Djinn]

ThatFinnishKid27 That's true. Sometimes I wish the stereotypical strict old lady who sushes everyone who makes a noise actually existed in every library. Most libraries, as they are now, are not strict at all and it doesn't make any difference to anyone whether people walk on their toes and whisper or throw a concert loud enough to break every window... It's kinda sad.

[@JeandrePetzer]

Might be 2 years late - but i agree with this sentiment. Went to my local town-library expecting to help a mate study and study for an exam myself but was extremely disrupted by a schoolgirl and her friends who were everywhere, eating, being distracting, moving about, speaking really loudly, ignoring instructions of the library staff. I was completely unable to learn properly for my exam. Learnt better at home than at the library. My school library is closed during the hours I'd like to study and i have not yet come across a uni or college campus in my area that has a library for the public - else i'd like to have gone checked that out instead :)

[@hanahdetalla6257]

Finding this was the best thing that happened to my life. I'm serious! Best video to play while studying. I've used this video about 22 times now(and counting). Never failed to make me more productive. Comparing this to other library background noise, I find this to be the best. Not too noisy, not too quiet. Just right. Thank you so much!

[@duffthepsych]

+Hanah Detalla Awesome! I'm planning on making some more like this pretty soon.

[@joanapita89]

Not silent and not enough noise to get distracted... Perfect!!! :D

[@duffthepsych]

Joana Ferreira Nice!

[@catarinasantos1405]

:-)

[@catarinasantos1405]

Tive 63% no teste de francês

[@wxtermelonqueen3762]

This is so perfect for doing my reading for school. I usually listen to music and nature sounds, but there distracting while I read. This is perfect. It reminds me of a library (obviously) And makes me feel like I'm in one which helps for some reason . Have a great day ya'll

[@FridayAssimov]

My daughter likes to hear me roam around the household when shes gone to bed. Sometimes I do not have any chores and just want to read my e-mails. I put this on with it and have my peace and she has hers.

[@duffthepsych]

Aw cool!

[@9wolves2007]

I read through your post too quickly to the extent where I thought it said *"Sometimes I do not have any clothes"* and thought "wtf?" LOL! I can't apologise enough!

[@atsukosan_artwork]

So cute! :D

[@DonVaillancourt]

Ok, this dude isn't reading he's tearing papers out of a book. And I swear he put a crumbled piece in his mouth and chewed it.

[@amandas2639]

Must be finals week.

[@maicajapanmoments]

In order to better 'absorb' what he's studying...

[@urbanjungle6056]

Lol

[@benjaminherrera3309]

this gave me a good laugh

[@glueeaterofficial]

Sounds like he's just eating potato chips.

[@californiapoppies]

some of these comments seriously crack me up. but this is my favorite library video to listen to when I do hw. I have a few others that I listen to on occasion, but I definitely prefer this one. And a lot of people are saying that a library is more quiet than this, but I disagree. At my college there are two floors in the library, the "quiet" floor which allows very minimal noise and talking because its for studying only, then they have the other floor which people can work together on projects, use the computer, etc etc. So not all libraries are dead silent. when i am in the not-quiet section of my school library I hear lots of stuff: phones vibrating, pages turning, people typing, people talking, people eating. that's why i really like this recording.

[@baniah1827]

I was struggling so bad and couldn't focus, but these back ground noises helped me relax and start to write my essay. Thank you for taking the time to record these noises and share them with us!

[@duffthepsych]

My pleasure! good luck :)

[@cosimodemedici1165]

JustAWhisperingGuy hey brother you should really do more of these its like awesome, youre the coolest white guy in the world

[@PringlesOriginal445]

This REALLY helps me study!!!!! I hate studying in silence, thanks for the upload.

[@duffthepsych]

Manvir J Glad it helps!

[@Chameshi]

I've used this to study for years, and now come to appreciate it even more after listening to a recently new "library ambience" track. The occasional page flip, writing, and whiteout tape(?) in this one is sooo much better than a constant buzz of white noise. Would give another thumb up if could!

[@friendlove33]

This is great for taking practice exams at home when studying so you can get used to the sounds during an exam that might distract us

[@franklinhunt-gonzalez5249]

Yes LSAT Gold

[@meroOoO92]

I am listening to this for 4 years now ,, while being at home and cannot have the joy of being at a library surrounded by these noises ,, thank u sir :)

[@group2gaming]

"pass me the aux cord" "you better not play trash" lol jk this really helps

[@Ragmatras]

As I have to thank Duff for posting this, I can at the same time congratulate the people searching for this. Smart way of getting focused if you ask me, many others choose more distracting background noises like music with lyrics ;)

[@MrMayHem2015]

I love to listen to this when I am drawing, it really helps me concentrate and my artwork has greatly improved since listening to this in the background. Thank you for helping me succeed in my art.

[@duffthepsych]

I'm happy to support that! Nice work :)

[@Haya___K]

thank you so much! out of all library sound videos i like this one the most :)

[@baxterandcotton]

This reminds me of study hall :) Some of the best naps of my life were during study hall.

[@candyandsketch6338]

This is so relaxing I listen to this when I do my homework, when I sleep, when I read, and when i just want to listen to something and nothing good has been posted yet Thanks so much!

[@duffthepsych]

Nice no prob!

[@khuzdaar]

These ambient sounds are amazing. Thank you. They really help.

[@duffthepsych]

+Mehreen Qayas Thanks! Good luck with whatever you're working on :)

[@corneliastrand9809]

This is helping me get through long sessions of studying, and really helps on my concentration! Thank you for uploading! :-)

[@Ambziie]

After listening to this for years, today was the first time I had this loud enough that I could hear the people in the background talking. :o

[@joanneinabox]

I'm listening to this in an actual library, people in here are being so noisy :(

[@sigong0000]

Joanne Cheung lol

[@cancerboii]

+Joanne Cheung XD ahahaha

[@sigong0000]

***** :)

[@ABESW0RLD]

Joanne Cheung Same😂

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

If only my high school library were like this....Graham Library at U of T, SO MUCH BETTER

[@tinatingles5419]

This was great, and put me to sleep, up to about the 1:08 mark when this "ding-dong-ding-dong" of the library announcements scared the crap out of me and woke me up! If you could edit that out, it would be wonderful. :)

[@Vountanyfe]

I actually was too lazy to go to the library of my university today but because I love the atmosphere there, this audio clip is perfect!

[@shaaronevans4934]

Perfect! I work alone in an office building and I can put this video on loud in another room with a light and give the illusion that I am not alone. Thanks!

[@shruticute]

I’m literally writing a dissertation while listening to this. Thank you!

[@randomperson4560]

I use this while studying for an exam in order to get used to the background noises so that I will not get disturbed duringn the actual exam. Also some of the noises are very relaxing and remind me of ASMR. Great video thank you!

[@rachelwalker3017]

That's the exact reason I'm here. I always study with music so background noise just 😖

[@leoncraftmc]

Can you do sounds of a classroom, i can't seem to do my work at home, but i get it done at school

[@gamingwithtnt1111]

SupLeon If you ever find one i recommend you to also have a Strict teacher sound effect to get it done faster

[@Shammer1]

yes the one kid screaming in the back, the guy who thinks he's funny, the girls chilling in the back chewing gum and can't forget the guy asking for your tots

[@kellyu.2587]

Ah....lovely wonderful typing sounds! So relaxing....and perfect background sounds while I study. :)

[@Aphrodite1985007]

Thank you so much... I figure, I'll add you to the list of people I want to thank for helping me finish my PhD :)

[@duffthepsych]

have fun with that. Do not miss.

[@chrism4403]

Aphrodite1985007 you're gonna fail

[@kimpickett9338]

You mean Dr. Aphrodite, I think. ;-)

[@c0rt0malt3s3]

Kim Pickett Well played :)

[@markb542]

Wow. Slice of life and just set the mood for a very relaxing morning for me! Best wishes on your dissertation and many thanks for the relaxing video!

[@realkingofwales3917]

"This is just a long audio clip of some background white noise from my recent trip to the library. This was recorded with a blue snowball mic on it's omnidirectional setting on a Sunday afternoon as I worked on my dissertation at the public library. Lots of page flipping, typing, sighing and people doing things near by. Enjoy! " To all those people that are complaining it doesnt sound like a real library, he used recordings from his library 😎

[@kaydenechu3302]

This cracked me up in the beginning but I'm getting to really enjoy it.

[@hchcey]

I am studying for the HK diploma of second education exam, this white noise does help my concentration and in the study mode. It some how makes me feel like I was siting in an exam hall, so than I wont feel unfamiliar nor nervous when I am writing my exam. Thx a lot

[@duffthepsych]

+hchcey Very smart!

[@biggdogg35810]

Wow. I've tried studying to the sound of nature, classical music, classic jazz.......watching Law and Order...but THIS helped me the most!!

[@sunflowersentimientos]

This is awesome! I hate listening to talking ASMR when I study, because then I get distracted. This is perfection. My essays are going to write themselves. Thank you JustAWhisperingGuy

[@duffthepsych]

If only they actually would! haha

[@teslagirlM]

I see many people thank you for helping their work. I have to thank you too, because I write with these videos in the background. I don't know or care why, but it helps me focus. I have also learned to make awesome cocktails from you! lol Thanks for a great channel. Keep it up. :)

[@duffthepsych]

Thanks so much! I'm happy to help!

[@BraingasmFilm]

I LOVE this!! This might be the most relaxing video I've heard. Thanks for putting this out there!

[@0700andrea]

Thank you for this!! I live in a small place and have to find a way to isolate myself when studying. This helps a lot.

[@Superlasek]

Thank you so much! This helped me a lot with my homework. I'm sure I'll hear it again, to my favorites:)

[@duffthepsych]

:D thanks Lindsay! I'm glad you liked it!

[@LivingWalks]

Hi there, good to find someone else doing a similar thing to us and doing it so well! I'll be back. Keep up the good work.

[@namikage]

I was searching a sound like this for hours.. thanks a lot !!

[@duffthepsych]

namikage awesome. Glad you like it

[@DeadDancers]

Really good study noise. :) Even the tone at the end is a good point to remind us to take a break. :D

[@amziah8028]

Whoa! That library is huge!

[@allybally0021]

Eating food......great library sound. Then I would be going postal. The whole thing would be very ASMR.

[@tridecalogism935]

I really enjoy this video. Really helps me focus on my study. So I had this on blast - getting mad tingles. So relaxed. I forgot about the loud as hell bing bong noise at 1:08:00

[@crypticgamesinccgi9864]

Usually fall asleep too the noise of cars passing but when there's no traffic this helps 👍

[@ike7612]

Presentation due tomortow, I listened to this and it's not so quiet that it's torturing, nor is it loud enough to be distracting, thank you!

[@duffthepsych]

You got this!

[@ike7612]

Duff The Psych Thanks! Ill do my best! And sorry for the late reply. '-';

[@duffthepsych]

Thanks for the luck! I'm glad this was relaxing background sound for you :)

[@katieann4388]

that announcement killed me! rest was brilliant tho, more productive than i normally am with it!

[@Regrettable-Username]

I'm speed writing a paper that's due tonight and this is so helpful!

[@herrmioni]

..what a beautiful library..

[@porp109]

Can you upload the noises of a slaughterhouse? I can only study if I'm in one of those.

[@duffthepsych]

+porp109 sure

[@jeskermesh]

+porp109 I really hope you're trolling. XD

[@Andysingtoyou]

+porp109 a slaughterhouse? That can be be bad unless one reason your monitoring the house. The Father and Mother Creator know hopefully.

[@cbikle]

+porp109 Animal or human ?

[@sunflower8931]

and i can only breath when you shut the fuck up

[@remnant1018]

🙌🙂finally! Library without the loud wind/breeze noise in the background. Thank you😊

[@j.nardelli]

I was listening to those videos in a separate browser window and they were running as a playlist randomly assigned. This one came right after your commute to work... so I thought, hummm, he arrived to work and is opening the mail

[@ruxiwang9571]

cool! this is just what i wanted to do. looking forward to more white noise records from you!

[@davidbenjamin2069]

Terrific idea. Thank you for posting.

[@milanmor]

Finally, there is no SHHH background sound, mainly because they are recording it mono, instead of stereo.

[@2012farfar]

Awesome, please share more and good luck with your dissertation :)

[@MrMaron1000]

Looks like a sick library

[@brittaneylaporte5915]

This is perfect! Thanks for the upload!

[@breathingoxygen2087]

I think this is why I rather study with a small group of people than alone. Not because I can talk to them or something, but because of the "Sound of Company" So you can get in the right mood for studying and so you don't get easily distracted by random things.

[@sorathekeyblader6770]

It feels like someone is living in my phone. I don't know why but I like this feeling :D

[@lwalsh729]

Such a relaxing audio! Thanks for the upload it'll get me right to sleep :)

[@olivias2959]

I was going to watch this while I studied... but then I realized I'm actually in a library. Somehow it sounded better, though.

[@duffthepsych]

Hahahaha awesome

[@ABESW0RLD]

Only if this was 4 hours longer😥😥, This is fireee🔥I've got it on repeat!

[@talitasakuntala]

Thank you for this! Really helped me to focus!

[@duffthepsych]

Awesome! I'm glad it helped out with that. That's what I was hoping for!

[@avawitherite9028]

This helped me focus a lot

[@CGambience100]

it's not too much, it's just what i need, perfect :)

[@duffthepsych]

Charlie Guillaume Nice!

[@bassrawkers]

1:12:15 and no one got shisshed! It was a good day

[@sarius129]

You got me! lol

[@TDYT103]

For the first couple minutes t felt kind of awkward but afterwards it was really relaxing to not have too much noise and not too litle. thanks

[@duffthepsych]

Opening and closing of a binder, I think.

[@ItsMe-cb4on]

Thank you! It helps a lot for studying...

[@mishlol123]

practicing for math exams with this to simulate my ADHD focusing on noises people make during exams

[@brandy251]

Great idea. Thanks for making this.

[@tebelshaw9486]

Our library here in Florida sounds like a daycare center. This coupon-clipping noise is much more soothing. 😏

[@marcusbudd2442]

Sure helps with school work during the Corona virus

[@rosaleeadams1160]

I never used the university library's open spaces. There was just too much distraction. Instead, I used the individual study carrels which were located among the stacks.

[@KingOfTheKindle]

Who else is here because they just really like libraries and miss them during corona? Oh, just me. Ok.

[@niloahmadi5556]

Thank you it really helps to fokus and do a translation job finish

[@LukusGames]

Now THIS is why I got surround sound headphones!

[@a7xskateboarding]

Reminds me of class, no wonder i had a hard time staying awake

[@creecree-c4q]

It really helps me concentrate much longer! I love this videoㅋㅋ i think you're creative;)

[@wxtermelonqueen3762]

Roses are red, violets are blue, Stop reading the comments, you have work to do.

[@avaeiben4170]

Thank you for reminding me

[@1StefenM]

After 40 seconds of that page tearing I would have told whoever is doing that to, respectfully, SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[@Krys_P]

I'm sitting in a uni library, and everyone is so loud I have to listen to this stuff.

[@duffthepsych]

+xKriZ765x That's so funny

[@hidebarnes8188]

a man walks into a fish and chip shop he walks up to the counter. The man. can two potions of fish and chips please. The lady at the counter. Sir this is a library. The man. oh . He whispers. Two potions of fish and chips please. 😂

[@duffthepsych]

+Heidi Barnes bahaha

[@room___]

+Nicolas Whitiker mad

[@Rose-oo9zl]

That announcement at 01:08:00 scared the living crap out of me

[@beccageiser66]

I love this so much so thank you...are you chewing gum in this?

[@ryanfish91]

nice to have whilst reading. thanks.

[@duffthepsych]

Happy to help!

[@isabelrodriguez8352]

I'm a music major, so music doesn't help me study. However, the library sound is exactly what I need😎

[@duffthepsych]

You do? I don't recall. Thanks though.

[@MinxLaura123]

love this vid

[@duffthepsych]

Hahaha go for it then! Follow your dreams, child!

[@raymondbatac3826]

This sounds like inside the house whenever I play Sims.. both make me feel relaxed lol

[@briancannon4607]

I am most distracted when I am alone. This helps.
