The rule at this like is on about the early closing time of public libraries in my city. The rule is set to control operating costs and ensures the safety of the staff. I don’t like this rule because it’s quite inconvenient for people who can only visit the library after work or school. As a student, I often have classes during the day and would like to go to the library in the evening to study or borrow books. But with the early closing time rule, I always have to rush to the library right after school. I think it will be very tight and busy for me. I would like to change the rule because it restracks people’s access to knowledge. The library is an important place for learning, starting and extending the opening hours to make full use of resources. The library is beneficial for both individuals and society, especially for people who need to work every day. I think most people in China usually out of work until 6pm so they don’t have time to go to the library.

The rule I dislike is about the early closing time of public libraries in my city. The rule is set to control operating costs and ensure the safety of the staff. I don't like this rule because it's quite inconvenient for people who can only visit the library after work or school.
