When I was in school, I used to LOVE spending time at the library. I remember asking my dad regularly to drive me to the library and when I’d get out, I’d have an armful of books and he’d laugh every time. Today, with all of the technology we have in our lives, it’s easy to forget the importance of books and libraries. But one thing technology has done is provide us with funny library memes!
