Reading stories told through black ink on white paper is one of the favourite pastimes of most
people
. For the millions of
people
 around the world who love to read
books
,
libraries
 are an important place. Many individuals think that
people
 should have free access to
libraries
 and
books
 in it;
however
, others, including myself, believe that
people
 should pay for
libraries
. A number of advocates against paid
libraries
 believe that
this
 trend causes crisis to the
libraries
. If
book
 departments require payment for
books
 and a quiet place to read, the number of visitors decreases a lot and
people
 will start to read
books
 with the help of the internet where the free access to a lot of
books
 in electronic version can be found. Nowadays, the infamous coronavirus is still spreading across the globe and during the quarantine, many
book
 lovers could read quite a lot of
books
 at their home finding the online versions of them.
On the contrary
, the payment for the library gives the person not only access to any
book
 in that
book
 department

 the quiet place where that individual can read in peace.
Moreover

 is paying for the

this
 thing gains importance for the reader, as
this
 person does not want a waste of money. For these reasons, I strongly believe that
libraries
 should be paid. In conclusion, the fees for
libraries
 are worth the money paid.
Libraries
