If There Was One Library Left
I can't even imagine that we come to a point where there's one last library and librarian in the world. But hey, that's what Sci-fi Multiverse makes us explore. The things we wouldn't normally imagine. And while I can't imagine it or rather, couldn't have thought of imagining something like this, I'm left exploring this thought. That's the power of imagination I guess. It takes you to where you wouldn't even expect. Sometimes, life's possibilities and realities are born from the place of imagination.
Back to the library talk. First of all, I think that would be an absurd situation. The presumed or supposed bank of knowledge from time past goes away, with only one left, and one manager of it. For those who seek knowledge and enjoy reading, especially as it relates to going to the library, it would be a total concern for them. I'm even thinking, where would this last library be situated or located? We have several continents, with many countries in them. Where could it end up being, and what would that mean for those who are not in that country or continent?
If one last library remains, with one librarian, I feel they would be cherished and cared for. This is to ensure that knowledge, books, information and whatever is gained from the library and the librarian’s services remain. While there's a substitute in the place of ebooks, which no one needs a physical library or even a librarian for, it will mean a lot to many for the sake of preserving something that is great.
I would be glad to see the library get preserved, and the librarian’s services as well. I would hope that there would be a multiplication or growth in other countries and continents. The books can be reprinted. The librarian can teach others and a lot more to bring about more libraries and librarians. There are people who enjoy hardcopy books more than soft copies. I think I fall into those who enjoy hardcopy books more, for some reason. Nevertheless, I can do with ebooks as well, though not that much as I would with hard copies.
So, in the case of something like that, I'll revert fully to ebooks. There's even that ease with mobility and then availability at almost every moment, since we carry our phones around. Ebooks will serve me, with my laptop and phone in place, till hopefully we get the libraries again, then I can have the hard copies as well to enjoy.
A person like me finds it difficult to read books; the last time I visited a library was back in school. If we were left with just a library, I probably wouldn't notice that. Enjoying the act of reading and holding a printed book is lovely when you think of yourself.

It's not easy to read books though some find it as a hobby. The library thing is quite obsolete in our country and part of the world. But some other parts of the world have very much use of it. Yes, that's true.
Thank you for stopping by.

I don't think so, how many libraries and librarians do we have at the moment? How many are being taken care of?
You tend to care for something more than usual or even if you don't, when you realise it's the last available. Again, we don't really value libraries in this part of the world. Other parts of the world do.
Thank you.

Omo, truly, if it's just one library, where would it be situated? Guy, there would be problem o.
Well, someone like me who doesn't like reading that the Library, I don't think I would be affected.
Whether ebooks or traditional books, we would adapt depending on how much we love knowledge
Yes bro...
Well, we all have what works for us.
Thank you sir.

I can't say if such a library will be taken care of, to me I feel it would just be abandoned as no one would be willing to invest in it, but I must add that it might possibly become a tourism centre or such and might as well be the go-to place when certain information or knowledge are needed.
Thanks for sharing.
❤️❤️❤️
I don't think so. In this part of the world, libraries have little or no value. We barely use them, so I understand. Not so with other parts. Except it's here, I don't really see them abandoning it considering it's the last availabile, and you tend to care even for the last of something you have. Just my thoughts.
Thank you for the comment.

Well, we never can tell, but for the fact that's it's only remaining one, then it's just obvious that people do not really have interest in it anymore and the others have stopped functioning..
I get your point too though...
Thanks for having me ❤️💯

Library is quite becoming distant in our contemporary world but a last one standing would be very much appreciated
That's true. It would be I presume.
Thank you.
