I mean think about it.

You just need a library card (usually free if not always) and you can get anything a library offers for free with no fees. This use to be just movies, books, music CDs (think early 2000's and 1990's but now you can even get new video games for free. (physical copies)

it's a collective resource for a lot of media based products. Most countries, (if not all) have and tend to support public libraries.

but is this a good communism service. when looking at communist principles? What does the community think?

Personally, even though a library isn't necessarily a means of production, I don't think it would be not be welcomed under a communism environment. I feel the concept of a library and how they work overall is similar to what communist might be looking for in general from such a service.
