    I have loved this library since forever, its collection of books old and new spans 2 or 3 floors…read morefloors. Its interior and exterior is both impressive. The library has many book groups as well as bookbug for children. There's a study space, music library and here you can also get hearing aid batteries and apply for a bus pass.

    I love geeking it up in here. Not that I'm saying reading books or hanging out in libraries is…read moregeeky, it's actually cool to be a geek. The Central Library is a great haven of peace and general silencio on George IV Bridge, if you're in that mood where loud noises and crowds and traffic are annoying you. It's a pretty big place, with several floors of...well...books, tables for reading and studying, and some computers as well. As long as you have a library card, you can get free internet access here for an hour or so. There's also Wi-Fi now, which has been brilliant for me, because I am the most susceptible person to distraction ever, so working at home can sometimes be almost impossible, and I struggle with cafes at the best of times too. There's just too many people to watch and outfits to analyse. Working at the library is always a good concentration call, and they have plenty of space for people to beaver away at their homework/articles/crossword etc. There's an awesome feeling of history to the building too, so while you're working away you can imagine yourself one day, after that long awaited intellectual breakthrough, being written about or being a writer and then placed in book form on one of the shelves. Everyone has a book in them and all that banter.
