What do you love most about the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh?
Can it be more than one thing? It’s history, it’s branches, it’s staff, and it’s users. I haven’t been to any other major city’s library systems, but I feel that ours has a very unique history, and that it’s one that people appreciate. It seems special to me because I’ve been going to the library since I was a kid, and now I’ve moved onto the Teen department. I feel like I’ve grown up in the library, and that seems special. The staff is just amazing–really supportive. And every time I come in, I hear something different. During our advocacy day, I talked to families and PhD candidates. Just seeing and talking to the wide range of people who use the library is really astounding.

It’s been a mild winter, sure, but you still might want to wear one of these things around, if only for intimidation.
