It's happening. The funding for libraries across the US is getting clawed back, and I suspect many (the majority) will eventually close permanently.
Here in the EU, the vibe in libraries is decidedly "get your books and GTFO". The old timey welcoming vibe and friendly librarians are a thing of the past.
Where? My small library in rural France has book clubs, story time (on site and at the public pool), vintage and modern gaming consoles, art shows, craft workshops, and more.
Flanders.
