before computers, did public libraries have typewriters folks could come in and use?
Yes they did. Old…
…to new.
What’s interesting to me is the suggestion that being able to type was a common enough skill - or capability, anyway, speaking as someone who’s hunt-and-pecked through a bunch of novels, short stories and screenplays - that these machines were worth installing.
(Ray Bradbury wrote the first draft of “Fahrenheit 451” on a coin-operated typewriter.)
