Took some time to actually find it but it's really worth it!

Libraries are underutilized.

That's quite the checkout time!

Just for the future.. the blurring used can easily be seen through/reversed, and in the future a full on pixelation blur, or a solid colour to censor sensitive information would be wise.

It was impossible to find it in any libraries. Then i went to a library worker and asked if there was any way to get the book and they ordered for me from some random warehouse!

Haha, I've just got it from my university library as well. Luckily they had 4 copies.

I will always advocate for libraries.

Don't wanna buy a book? Library.

Don't wanna spend money on a streaming service for a specific movie/show(that's not specifically made for that service)? Dvds/blue rays from a library.

Fallen on hard times and need free wifi? Library.

Some even have video games.

Then they tend to have community activities or if you just need a quiet place to go. Love them.

Got Jan-Book from the library. Unfortunately they don’t have Fab.
