Yes
Yep, the idea is to purchase but I've never seen anybody pushed to do that. Remember it's not a lending library.
Absolutely! There is a Starbucks inside this place too if coffee with books is your thing. I've also seen people bringing in kids to read and play inside there (don't remember if it had a play area though)
