I'm especially in favor of libraries for one reason:

I can go in, grab a book, and read it without having to turn on my Bullshit Detector. If it's fiction, I know; if it's non-fiction, I know.

On the internet, I need to guard against things that sound right, but are completely woven from lies - and some people don't even bother.
