If you haven’t been to a public library recently, here’s an article from American Libraries on the “Ten Reasons Libraries Are Still Better Than the Internet ”. Not just a place that has a lot of books and the Dewey Decimal Classification system, libraries have all sorts of cool stuff to feed intellectual curiosity. “Libraries continue to provide benefits that are both tangible—such as community spaces and human interaction—and harder to quantify—access, privacy, intellectual freedom.”

About the author

Jiddu Krishnamurti (11 May 1895 – 17 February 1986) was an Indian philosopher, speaker, writer, and spiritual figure. Adopted by members of the Theosophical tradition as a child, he was raised to fill the advanced role of World Teacher, but in adulthood he rejected this mantle and distanced himself from the related religious movement. He spent the rest of his life speaking to groups and individuals around the world; many of these talks have been published. He also wrote many books, among them The First and Last Freedom (1954) and Commentaries on Living (1956–60). His last public talk was in January 1986, a month before his death at his home in Ojai, California.
