Well, I've been living in Kasama city, Ibaraki prefecture, Japan for about 40 years. Please let me be proud of my city public library. This year, Kasama Library got a No.1 ranking for 11 straight years in circulation numbers among cities with a population of less than 80,000 people across the country. The circulation includes paper books, digital books, CDs, DVDs, etc.

Not really. I'm embarrassed to say this, but I'm more of a houseplant, so, sadly, I don't know the landscape of our city so much. Well, getting back to the library, it has about 600,000 items in total. To be honest, I'm not comfortable in libraries that feel too quiet and serious. Therefore, I now use libraries mainly to burrow DVDs. In these past three years, I watched about 40 movies, and a half of which I borrowed from Kasama Library. In that respect, I know I should appreciate libraries more.

For instance, I borrowed and watched the following movies: "Never Let Me Go" based on Nobel Prize winner, Kazuo Ishiguro's novel, "1984" based upon George Orwell's novel, "The Shining" based on Stephen King's novel, "The Great Dictator" written, directed, and played by Charlie Chaplin, "Roman Holiday" featuring Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, "Bonnie & Clyde" staring Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, "Spectre" the twenty-fourth film in the James Bond series, "JFK" dealt with the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and "Titanic" based on accounts of the sinking of Titanic in 1912. I assume you've watched some of them.
