Do elementary schools still have libraries? I ask b/c


May 17, 2022, 1:39 PM

I was eating dinner last night with my friend's great grandfather and he said his school didn't have one back in the 1930s. I remember having books and book fairs and everything back in the 80s.

Now they're called "media centers" or some such.


May 17, 2022, 1:43 PM

But yeah, they still exist. My ex-gf got a masters in library science and is a school librarian. She's also a fuckin skank.

dropped some coin at the book fair a couple of weeks ago


May 17, 2022, 1:48 PM

also had to pay for a framed coloring that my 1st grader did

There's a company that does that for the school and they must make bank

Kids do the art, they frame it and sell it to you for $25

We're not really best friends, but we call each other bestie because I took her fishing one time.
