Isn't reading just another form of entertainment? I won't argue that libraries are not important, but they aren't exactly used for education unless they are located in a school these days. They are mostly used for reading (entertainment), computers/internet (entertainment) and DVDs (entertainment). Which essentially makes it an entertainment venue.
