This whole thread - and that whole chunk of TFA - is totally alien to me.

When I was 9, our school had a small library with a librarian (or at least an on-duty teacher), and if you wanted to read something you could always go and ask her what she thought you'd enjoy - and that was on the off chance you couldn't find something that looked appealing.

There are also public libraries where you could do the same thing with your parents in tow.

When did that stop?
