A-Maze-in

So, anyone who knows me well knows I go crazy for Libraries. Yes, with a capital Y! Where else can you go to get so much free information and resources?

Ok, so what if the Net is at your fingertips? The library gives the added bonus of so many untangibles: the smell of books, the faint sound of a photocopier in the distance, interactions with other patrons (why is a patron only used for library customers?)...oh, and stuff is usually free, so long as you have a, ahem, free library card. Crazy.

Anyways, I love going to the Oak Park Libraries with M, and now A. M loves going and getting a couple books and movies, but can't wait to get on their computers for some games.

She could play for hours.

Oak Park has a wonderful downtown location with a great layout, especially on the kids floor. Closer to us is the Maze Library, very quaint and cool architechturally with the exposed buttresses. It's small, but very condusive with keeping up with 2 kiddos at once!
