When's the last time you've been to a library?
>>
Good morning, I hate women.
>>
Two days ago. I returned my allotment of cd's and renewed my books. If my gf didn't pay for a sickening amount of streaming services i would just go back to checking out dvds.

Apparently you can download ebooks frim home but i like physical copies and browsing random books in random isles.
>>
Good morning, I love women, I love exhibitionists.

I have way too much on my plate, physical books and E, to need the library for much.
...Not till I become homeless anyway

I go for CDs and DVDs mainly since I like collecting books too much. Also they have literary magazines which are fun to read and see what's happening in the writing world.

> The University later expelled her and banned her from campus; the cam website also banned her and she faced criminal charges for public indecency and a fine of over $6,000.[7][8] She pleaded guilty to the charges and paid a $1,000 fine.[9][10] Her parents stopped paying her tuition once she dropped out of school
kek, if she did this 10 years later she would be hailed as a feminist icon

Let's say hypothetically I defaced a book by writing derogatory comments about the author all over the place, what are the odds hypothetically that the library a.) knows about it, b.) would have revoked my card? I've been afraid to go back since then because it would be so embarrassing to get called out on it. The book was Plato at the Googleplex by Rebecca ((Goldstein)). She tried to make Plato out to be some sort of modern who didn't believe in the immortality of the soul etc. and all the stuff about celibacy and anything else modern liberals wouldn't like was invented by Augustine and other Christian Platonists. Yes that is what she argued almost word for word. It was outrageously bad and not true and I couldn't help myself, I hated the idea of some innocent young kid getting corrupted by Ms. Goldstein.

that included your mother too?

That's ultimately where all woman hate starts.
If your mother is shit, you hate women. If your mother is great, she skews your perception of women and basically no woman could match her.

>There is still controversy over how committed to the thesis of immortality Plato was, even though it became such a cornerstone of Christian Platonism. This [Phaedo] is the dialogue where he most rigorously explores reasons to accept the proposition, and he doesn’t end the dialogue with a conclusive endorsement of it. But then there is still controversy over whether Plato endorses any substantive propositions, or even endorses the endorsing of propositions.23
>Note 23: Interestingly, Ruby Blondell, who argues with great force and persuasiveness that it is a “basic methodological mistake” to assume or even infer “the equivalence of any of Plato’s characters with the voice of the author,” and that we therefore must be extremely wary of attributing any doctrines to Plato, holds it to be hard not to believe that Plato himself believed in the immortality of the soul “in some shape or form.” Blondell, Play of Character in Plato’s Dialogues, p. 18. I confess I don’t find it hard to question whether Plato believed in the soul’s immortality. The notion of our personal identity inhering in “something” that could survive the body’s death was a doctrine of the Pythagoreans, and Plato gives it a sympathetic hearing in the Phaedo, as well as using it as an element in many of his “myths.” But there is a contrasting view of personal identity—and the possibilities (or not) for personal immortality—to be read out of Plato, one that places him far closer to his Greek ethos than to the Christianity to come, namely that it is our attainment of the extraordinary—for Plato, attained by way of reason—in this incurably mortal life that allows us whatever participation in immortality is possible. This idea will be taken up in the remainder of the chapter.
You kinda sound like a big toddler. It's already a bad book, you don't have to hallucinate shit out of thin air about it tho.

Yesterday because I work at a public library, but I don't work Thursdays

>>25261925
You actually paid money for this book lmao. Why, planning to read it again? But to the actual content - she just ignores his more serious arguments for immortality elsewhere like in the Phaedrus. "There is controversy" over whether Plato was a skeptic - ok sure there "is controversy" over anything with Plato but I wouldn't call that a mainstream view, that Plato holds no philosophical positions. The question of the immortality of the soul also has nothing to do with Christians, there were Platonists walking around who believed in the immortality of the soul before Christ was even born. Like I said the entire book is like that, anything she sees as 'irrational' is pinned on Christians, and that's just flat out wrong and inaccurate. I'm not a practicing Christian or a Platonist I just can't stand retarded people like her, it's a deceptive book. Also all the product placement. Just (( )) all around really. I'm proud of what I did, my only question is whether I get away with it.

I always wanted to work at a library when i get older. How hard is it to get a job there? Is it comfy?

>>25261657
You say this like it's a bad thing.

>>25261489
same, I can't focus when I'm at home

so what exactly are you doing day to day? and what was the weirdest thing you witnessed?

>>25263173
I also work at a library, so I'll answer these too

>>25263253
I got my job pretty easily with a two-year college degree for Library Technician, it's reasonably comfy but you have to be ready to wrangle kids, handle Karens, and even babysit homeless schizos if you're in the city

>>25263342
Assisting people at the front desk, processing new items, keeping the library looking nice, doing odd jobs as needed

We used to have this mentally ill guy who would call the library multiple times per day to ask the same question he was currently obsessed with, like "what's the stock exchange at" (he didn't trade stocks or even know what the numbers meant) or "did they catch Osama yet"

One time he called to ask what it means if your shit is white

He has since passed away, RIP

>>25263353
It's reasonably nice, but the majority of positions are part-time only, including mine

Clerk Typist II here, through civil service. My job is a whole lot of nothing. I basically come up with event ideas for the year with the librarians, make sure the clerks aren't fucking up their jobs and train the pages on shelving.
We have two full-time librarians and two part-time. Two full-time clerks and four part-time. Maybe you can get a better full-time position somewhere else.

>>25264568
Guessing you live in a huge ass city?
>>
>>25264621
city yeah, but the city itself is relatively small maybe 20-30k pop
we get ~100-300 patrons through the door most days
when we have a big book sale or event we get ~400

>I always wanted to work at a library when i get older. How hard is it to get a job there? Is it comfy?
if you are not living in a place with an intellectual tradition, it's all about politics, as any other job (a job that involves public money & a pension, at that!); by politics I do not mean "office politics" but real, hardcore, "you'll be my bitch for life if I get you this job" politics, even if they didn't get you that job

>does that mean that it's safe to want to be a librarian in a place with an intellectual tradition?
that's like asking if it's safe being stabbed by a knife if it's not 100% guaranteed to give you AIDS
no, it's not safe, but trust that you'll know when you find the library job that's "meant" for you

by "place with an intellectual tradition" I mean a country or region was predominantly Catholic or Protestant for the past 500 years
