Bad libraries. The local library near where we have just moved has lots of Mills and Boon, celeb autobiographies, chic-lit and so on, but no 'classics'. Whether that means Jane Austin, Dostoyevsky, Dickens or Chaucer to you matters not - they don't have it. Not even Shakespeare! There's probably no book in there published more than, oh, twenty years ago.

But a *good* library is something else.
