Because I saw others here speak about their libraries, I will too.

I'm Polish, I live in a big city. My libraries around, are, to say it mildly, awful. At best, they'll contain old school readings, some history book from communist period and old tech manuals (old as in, Win 95 guides or for tech that is no longer used).

I really envy Americans in this aspect.

sounds like underfunding issues, but they're trying their best with what they have. And as others have said, they are important community spaces for studying, meetups etc.

not in here - they aren't a place for that :( at best, events for primary/secondary school, and that is it

and yup, they are certainly underfunded and i don't envy them, i do believe that most of them are trying to do as much as they can. :(
