We have recently joined our local library...why I didn't think to do that earlier?...
It's a great service that is FREE! I think the last time I went to the library was in college and that was mostly to study. So...when I was searching for a specific book..who knew they had gone all computerized on us...no more card indexes with the book location on it....
Things I learned and love about the library:
- FREE services: computer training, knitting/crochet groups, story time and craft time for kids
- electronic library for iPad, Kindle...
- Availability to order books that are not currently in the library (if you are looking for something specific)
- Check out 10 books at time
- Have a really good selection of movies (great for trips)
- Check out time is two weeks
- Online service to request and renew books...very convenient!
Just wanted to encourage everyone to participate in their local library. One thing I learned is that community participation is critical to their funding and eligibility for grants. It's a great source for information and it's free :)
Tip: I brought a reusable bag (that I use for groceries) to carry my books, since you can check out so many.
