Have you used post/base library?

Yes! The one at Fort Bragg was probably the nicest as far as staff goes, I always had good experiences with them. The one on Hood however, while pleasant most of the time, certain staff members in there were a little rude. But it was always a good experience.

The only post library I've ever used was the one at Ft. Hood. It's pretty large and spacious. I found the librarians and research aide to be very helpful, nice, and polite as well. There are study rooms for groups or you can sit out in the main areas and read as well. Also an extensive online library.

Yes, I often use the Throckmorton Library on Ft. Bragg, but only rarely for books. I use the computers when I have time during the day, to accomplish Skillport correspondence courses.

I do love reading, so I would be happy to have a library anywhere I go.

I have used the library at Fort Huachuca for academic purposes. At Fort McPherson they provided computers which helped my reserve unit get training done. But the library I have used the most and appreciated the most was at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait. I was working on my ILE and so I used it for research, they had free paperbacks, great news papers and a computer room. Also at Camp Arifjan our laundry room was filled with great free books that everyone shared. When I lived in Western Sahara there were a few books left behind by other English speaking peacekeepers so I had my family mail me books to read. Books kept me sane during that deployment.

I was an avid reader when I was a kid and made extensive use of base libraries at Rhein-Main and Tempelhof. I never used them when I enlisted. Never thought about that until now. Somehow we were distracted?
