新加坡图书馆之义顺 Singapore Public Library- Yishun

@auleo 旅居新加坡这么多年，觉得新加坡在公共图书馆这方面做的非常好，想把它介绍给Steemit的朋友。
After staying in Singapore for couple of years, I find the public libraries here are very well managed and thus would like to introduce it to fellow Steemians.


众新加坡图书分馆，有一半是独栋建筑物，而一半则是设立在购物中心里，而这些附设在商场的图书馆，@auleo觉得这想法太棒了！让不爱逛街的人去商场有一个好去处 ，而且这非常方便大众还书或借书的（可以网上预约，然后安排送到你要接收的图书馆）
>Singapore Public Libraries, some of them are located in a standalone building, while some of them are located right inside a shopping mall,which normally are on top of public transportation interchanges. @auleo just love the idea of having the public libraries established in a mall ,where book lovers whom doesn’t enjoy shopping can kill their time while their family do the shopping. And this has brought great convenience to public where the loaned book return and borrowing is so much easier (You can do any book reservation and arrange it to be sent to any dedicated library for collection ,at a small fee)


义顺图书馆是最近翻新的，我乘着去到义顺的新广场开张顺便去哪里看看新装修的怎么样了，毕竟这家图书馆也关了一年多了。
>Yishun Public Library had been closed for renovation for more than a year. Recently this branch completed the upgrade and renovation alongside with the new interchange mall. So @auleo took the opportunity to this newly-renovated Yishun North Point Mall, and visit the library.

翻新后的义顺图书馆很有现代感，书架都是白色的
>Yishun Library is of modern feel after the reno, and all the book shelfs are in white.

那里的电脑区也是弄得很精致，所以那里很热门，一直等候都没人离开座位。
>The Computer area looks so cosy and comfortable, so it’s super hot seat, @auleo had been wanting to experience these seats but no one gave up the seat, haha.

墙上有些格言，鼓励着爱书者。
>Some motivational quotes for book lovers

在这里，我也发现有些电影还蛮吸引的，从来没借过vcd，下次可真得考虑借回家观赏。
>And I found some interesting movie VCDs are available here to loan- I had never tried to loan any CD/VCD from library, will surely consider the next time to loan and watch the movies at home.

入口那里有着全新加坡的图书馆地图，看着原来我也去过不少间打卡啊，呵呵
>There is a big Singapore map indicating the locations of each library on the island. Hehe, looks like I checked in quite a number of it.

而且新加坡公共图书馆会员费是一次性的，我很久以前申请会员，给了一次新币10多元后，就再也不需付什么更新会员费了，这是新加坡政府特设给国民的福利，希望大家多亲近书本、自修增值。
>Singapore Public Library membership fee is paid one-off. I applied for the membership many years ago, and paid the S$10++ once and never paid any thereafter. The Public Library is the Singapore Government great initiative to encourage its people to read more books and improve themselves.

尤其 图书馆里面不止有英文，还有中文、马来文以及印度泰米尔文的书籍，下会儿再慢慢介绍给大家。
>And the library books are not only in English , But in Chinese, Malay and Tamil. This @auleo shall further elaborate in coming articles.
