Be careful about *looking* for people in libraries and bookstores. For the most part people are generally there to read, not to be bugged by someone looking for a date. But aside from caution, they're definitely good places. I worked in a Borders cafe for about nine months or so, and during that time I met a large number of extremely pleasant and interesting people. You deal with significantly fewer losers when you're around literature.
My advice would be to do the very thing I'm trying hard to do as well; get involved in something that makes you happy. I've often said that I'm content, but not happy, with my life. The only problem is that I've been hell bent on assuming that the reason I wasn't happy is because I was lonely and single. I've come to realise that if I'm not happy by myself, chances are very likely that I wouldn't be happy with someone else either.
So I'm working on finding things to do that I enjoy, and to stick with them. There are women out there in every field that men enjoy; you'll find someone.
