The Library.

Every week I go to the library in downtown Oakland. This is an Asian library. There are books, videos, and CDs from many countries such as Vietnam, China, Thailand, Cambodia… The library is crowded most of the time. Usually there are a lot of elderly. They sit at the tables and read books and magazines. Internet access is available here, but you must sign up before using the service. The library is not big, but it’s neat and clean. Books are arranged on shelves by categories and languages, so we are easy to search and find whatever we want. There has a section for kids with books, pictures, films, and music. Every Saturday, there will have someone comes to entertain the kids. The staff is very friendly and helpful. You can borrow up to 20 books, and the books will be due in 3 weeks. I like the library because it’s place for us to gain more knowledge about life and the world.
