Actually I have a question about this sentence:

Quote:
[8]
hon o yomi ni toshokan ni ikimasu
ほんをよみにとしょかんにいきます
I'm going to the library to read a book.
I know the sentence structure is right because my study book says so. But why isn't it:

Quote:
hon o yomi ni toshokan e ikimasu
ほんをよみにとしょかんへいきます
I'm going to the library to read a book.
I would have thought that because I am going to the library I should use the particle へ. Can anyone tell me why in this instance we use に ?

Many thanks

K


Kind regards,
Kaede
