- While you are fast asleep, a vigilant team keeps watch over our libraries. What’s so precious that it demands 24/7 monitoring? Uncover the library's secrets that make borrowing a cinch for you. From maps to miniatures, relics of the past become borrowable treasures - if you know the right person to approach. Then there are workers who trawl the shelves scanning up to 50,000 items in just one night so you can find what you’re looking for in the light of day.
Elsewhere, a team uses a special method to keep car shares clean. They find offenders who abuse and misuse vehicles by literally sniffing them out. It’s all about the secret workings of the library and a car-sharing company that make borrowing or renting a cinch for you.

my sister owes the library $40
How long did she overdue how many days or weeks?
a year (not joking)@@user-oh6wb5rj2q
Why the hell suddenly talking abt tribecar
I still love going to library & my toddler son loves it too!!! ❤ thank you for enlightening me how library works!
if i have to hear benjamin kheng share a completely inane personal anecdote one more time
Forgetting to return library book could be a recurring theme in nightmares
Sorry ah CNA team
What is the rationale / purpose for having the car-sharing segment slotted in between the NLB story?
When at 1st glance of the title, I thought the entire segment will be NLB-focused.
Not like a sudden irrelevant showstopper abt car sharing segment to cut the NLB segment
I'm guessing it's the borrowing theme.
This is 50 years ahead of British libraries
interesting docu on the library but I really wondered why it's story was break up in parts?
To make us watch a very very long car sharing ad
😅@@SuccessforLifester
There could be a dark spin to the reason of having a wheelchair left behind. The person using it might no longer need it as he could have gone to another realm. So the wheelchair was sort of left there as a kind of donation to whoever that needs it.
Someone really knows his/her stuff. Now we know Singapore truly uphold Freedom of Information @2:41
Ok now i feel kinda bad for anyhow shoving books into the shelf 😮
I have problems falling asleep after years of being abused in class, in army and in library. Because some authoritarian figures would wake you up if you fall asleep. Now the nightmares of being woken up in libraries continue
And this is when I remember that one book I forgot to return.
Is it returned?
…no.
i see.
Book car to turn on air con for a while, probably to engage in hanky panky
Imagine finding a condom in there.
@@RebekahAPinto possible... Or smell of the fluids..
@@SuccessforLifester Eeeww!
All that late fees and yet NLB is still going to cancel Udemy subscription.
I think I won't mind working in these libraries.
A lot of times they take in volunteers. Maybe will give some peanuts allowance
Study hard and get a history degree from NUS/NTU
I go to thr library a lot because it's a way to get out the house
Why are these other segments about car sharing about libraries, what a weirdly edited video...
I also like to go to the library
كانريا يااخواتى ....
I have known of donkeys who borrowed books and never return.......SMH
Wow! That is high capability on the part of the librarians, comparable to that of the PAP govt. This is why PAP has always been the people's choice because it is the only competent party in s'pore.❤❤
what does this have to do with politics?
@@ChangeMustCome50 you a joker !
@@ChangeMustCome50 you worse then GARABGE !
Taxpayers money should be spent more on e-books than maintaining these libraries. E-books have many superior features to physical books, yet so much cheaper to maintain than physical books and libraries. I think many librarians are worried about their jobs with e-books and will be resistant to this change. We should not let this worry impede progress. Cut down expense on libraries and invest more in ebooks.
While I agree that this would be good for those with e-readers, not all have such access. For kids from less privileged families, these libraries are superior to their phones.
PAP knnbcjb
@cecacecaratssteal1395 you knnbcjb
Don’t listen to that garbage person who keep saying pap is the best while ignoring all their mistakes
No doubt they are the best compared to other parties. Even WP makes mistakes. Humans are not perfect anyway. Stop the garbage on others. You choose to be anti-gov and nobody says garbage to you so why should you garbage those who support the gov.

@CECADEVILS you knnbcjb !
