Bicycles, power tools, and community: The evolution of libraries | Natalie Hauff | TEDxCharleston

[@frejusnemet5179]

Libraries indeed offer a wide range of services beyond simply lending books. During my time in Utah, they provided invaluable assistance to me. In addition to borrowing books, I frequently visited libraries to find quiet spaces for contemplation and occasionally to engage in conversations with my dear elderly friend when I had no friends in my new environment The staff at libraries are so good. I deeply appreciate their empathyand patience towards people regardless of their origin. I love it!!!

[@Monicamojito]

Amazing, I wish more people were smart enough to be resourceful enough to go to the library!

[@insidedianeslife2456]

I love the library. I go through phases where I am there a lot and then not go for a year. I am always so happy that they are there when I need them. I am so glad they are innovating.

[@cartergomez5390]

Yeah, me too. I only go there once in a blue moon but when I go there, I end up taking home some useful information relevant to me as a professional and I love it.

This is such a great Ted talk. My dads a librarian so I’ve grown up hearing about all the things they’re doing to grow and better connect to the community. They’re really cool places that are vastly under appreciate!

Libraries provide safe nonsecular havens for victims of abuse of any kind; or rly for anyone seekin any kind of legal help or at least help figurin out how to access such resources Libraries help save lives in many ways, by connectin ppl to legal resources, and by providin a free place for ppl to just exist without bein charged with loiterin or some shite bcuz theyre homeless, and by providin spaces for ppl to teach valuable skills or to provide communiry gatherin spaces around some shared hobby (even beyond a book club; libraries have the best community hobby events where you can just go and learn or try smth new. Libraries are powerful tools in providin upward mobility and a form of a safety net for those alrdy the worst off in this capitalist hellscape we are stuck in

Her passion is beautiful to see.

A library is what you make it. Yes people don't know what they are missing

[@cirodirosa6752]

I find time slows down when entering one. Magically, the frantic city is not allowed in. But, us humans are! I love going into one to clear my mind.

[@sharinaross1865]

Love libraries.

[@Its_B1_4u2]

Shout out ledding library milwaukie, OR

[@FedJimSmith]

This talk boils to - Libraries aren't just for book reading/borrowing, it can be a Museum, a club meeting place, a multi-purpose hall as well

As i believe the worst place to learn coding is library, the best place to learn networking is absolutely library

[@arrowarrow17]

I feel like librarian doesn't function good enough. When my English was awful, I tried to find a proofreading services in library but nobody could help. I was frustrated and felt alone. If librarian has a strong grammar you should try to help students to proof read their work.

[@atenas80525]

Without judgment? That's fair, but that cannot become "without responsibility"

[@Mario.alsanchez117]

[@fancypants5782]

Funny how she won’t explain exactly why her gusano family left. Something tells me they wanted to protect that money obtained through exploitative sharecropping

[@thaliasghost]

I stopped the video at that lol.

[@EmanuelRamos-vh1pr]

I hate having to translate in spanish in my mind

[@plumiish]

An innovative library? My worst nightmare.
