My Library: Startasha
So, Startasha, what brings you to the Kips Bay library today?
I come in to use the computers and search the web. Since I don’t have one at home I’m happy I can come here to use it for free.
How long have you been visiting the library? And why do you come to Kips Bay Library?
I've been visiting since 2000 and Kips Bay is just the closet branch to my house. So it's just convenient
So do you do anything else at the library besides surf the web?
I check out stuff.
Like….
Music CDs and movies
What type of music and movies?
I’m into Broadway musicals and the library has a lot of Broadway musical CDs and movies.
So what is your favorite Broadway movie?
Which fame the old one or the new one?
