        I live in the US, and my local library has a cafe, 3d printers, and you can even borrow tools.

          Winter is hitting my little town in Sweden and I have to say that your suggestion is looking increasingly appealing. It’s not the cold. It’s not the rain we get now in place of snow thanks to global warming. It’s not even the darkness. It’s the gloomy all-encompassing grey.

          It’s like all life and joy leaves the world until spring hits in May.

              Yeah. We don’t get a whole lot of snow anymore though. At least not where I live.

              Well, I say that but I moved in September, maybe this area gets a tonne of snow!

        Isn’t Norway separate from Scandinavia?

      Not sure where you live, but I have actually been to a fair few libraries like this in the US. Usually if you want a really cool library, you’ll have to go to the main one in the state. If not that, the highest reviewed one. Of course, it all depends where you are, as different regions seem to care about having nice libraries at different amounts.

      And the most popular one: the podcast studio. I’d like to point out that the other 20-ish libraries we have besides of Bjørvika are amazing too! You should see the one we open in Holmlia dec 1st. It’s even got a separate youth-library next to the normal one.
