Hi! My name is nat and I am based in Singapore 🇸🇬 I like to talk about books - mainly nonfiction books on society, climate change and local issues! Occasionally I make videos on random topics and I give out advice time to time. My pronouns are she/they ✨

Great overview. I have visited all public libraries in Singapore. Top favorites: Punggol, Tampines, Woodlands, Jurong East and Choa Chu Kang.

speaking as an American, the idea of a library inside a mall blew my mind

as someone who works in the Australian library sector this was such an interesting video!! it gave me an insight into libraries on a more global scale, thank you for sharing this :)

iirc the bishan lib was renovated recently! its become my library of choice actually just bc i was so surprised @ how quickly they update their collection to include new releases and just..books in general (they brought in q a lot of joan didion like late last year + books w queer themes, for example) and the vibes r p good !! 150% recommend :-) (( also i rlly enjoyed this vid !! ty for making it

[@anattynook]

Oh wow!!! I should really visit haha I’m sure the website isn’t as updated :O I’m glad u enjoyed the vid!!!! It was very fun to make haha yay for public libraries 👏

woah! i knew the tampines library got renovated and moved to the hub, and it looked super cool, but i usually work from home. might actually think about visiting since you recommended it so highly. thank you for your review! :0c

[@Handshou]

thanks for the library review and rec!

I've wanted to check out Queenstown library for a while and have not gotten around to it, but after hearing what you said about it being a old-school standalone building type + it potentially being renovated sometime soon makes me think I should go check it out before it changes! Tampines library looks really good (that stairs and natural light!) and seems like might be fun to check out if I'm in the area. It was interesting to hear how you ranked them, especially since you considered the type of collection the library had. If I'd ranked them, I'll just be super biased towards the ones I go to frequently lol 😆

good survey of our public libraries ... would appreciate it if you can add a table of the rankings in text format in the description as can't identify the libraries from the pictures ...
