In Finland libraries don't refill shelves until last book is loaned out. This is so every book is loaned equally.
Did you know
What if there is one book none wants at all
will it remain empty forever?
thats a good idea, as someone who hoards books and cant get around to reading them all
someone should sneak there and put Mein Kampf copies every time they're about to run out of books.
sounds retarded
dumb and pointless
that's retarded. glad I don't live there.
People start loaning books they don't want to get refill day and then what they want. I've loaned bunch of women's erotica just to get Iain Banks scifis back on shelves.
Here is normal queue on refill day morning to get what you want before others loan it.
fake news
...or you could just refill every day so there's no queue...
or is it because you like standing in line?
Am I supposed to be impressed? Can we put this on reddit?
this
I think it keeps the interest on reading alive.
I hope, that would be too retarded
also
>going to library for fiction
There's no way this is true. It doesn't make any sense
only if it's used as an excuse to socialise while standing in line.
maybe this is why Finnish memes are so good. because they're beyond help irl.
And having city buy tons of books nobody reads makes sense?
Not the public's fault that librarians have shit taste. My city's library doesn't even have any Dostoevsky
Holy shit lmao.
What shitty city is that?
Even CHC has multiple copies of Dostoevsky in Russian
Tauranga
This is the closest I have ever seen Finns stand in line next to each other.
Does the Finnish love for reading exceed the Finnish disdain for human contact?
Wow, very progresive.
why does it matter though
This is the best b8 because everyone will fall for it because it's FINLAND
Lidderally gommunism
