Lazy library

Google books. Where you look to next when the libraries are closed, or if you're just plain lazy

Jim waited until midnight to start his research paper, so he took a few caffeine pills and opened up the lazy library

National Library of Wales

National Library of Wales - the national storage for Welsh books (super digitisation now!), closed in the evenings, closed on Saturdays, closed also on Sundays and during snowfall!

Welsh-speakers are preferred here even though the head of this place comes from England, also: boring exhibitions and bad coffee!

Very good history here - and experts in their fields.

You cannot take your books home. Once staff "have their foot in there", they can rest, play online games, dream, be depressed - and be off-sick as much as they like. A big social club it seems to the interested outsider. Just another institution.

Hiya - there's another exhibition about Dylan Thomas in the National Library of Wales.

National Library of Wales

Old place, "full" of old people - situated on Penglais Hill in Aberystwyth. They want to impress each other there with "hellos and sut maes" (and The Assembly!). A good collection of very good books! Unfortunately not appealing to the wider public!

It could do better - well, certain things never change. Go there for the view! Good employer in the area. It is a beautiful building. Strange librarian I would not trust though.

Helo, sut mae? Ydych chi'n brysur? Hello - you are well? Off for some gos' (gossip) at the National Library of Wales.

library monster

A creature that lurks behind stacks and in between shelves. It will commonly devour small children. Sometimes the monster will reorder books from its favorite to its least favorite rather than adhering to the dewey decimal system. The library monster's greatest foe is the librarian. They are born when a creeper lurks in the shelves for too long and eventually becomes a library monster.

"I've seen that girl lurking around the stacks a lot lately. She's probably going to become a library monster."

Library Fever

When you go insane from spending too long in the library and start to find everything funny. Similar to cabin fever.

"Is that the smell of your feet?"

"Yes."

Hysterical laughter ensues. Library Fever.

Library Face

A library face is defined as someone who appears to be an avid library visitor. This phrase is intentionally vague for people to interpret it how they want. A person with a library face is often annoying and lacks women.

"Have you seen that tiktok guy who plays Valorant? He has such a library face"
