Our local library, connected to seemingly every other library in the country, provides me with every book and movie I've wanted for years. Such an amazing resource. Request it online, pick it up locally, usually within two days.
- Psilidae 8y agoGreat recommendation! I haven't really used our local library because I keep forgetting that it's an option. But, I just checked and it looks like ours has the same Inter-Library Loan process for requesting books. Thanks, I'm going to try to remember this and start using it more. Hopefully it'll help me both save money and reduce the number of unread books collecting dust on my already full shelves.
- gymshoes 8y agoPlus one on that. The public library + kindle + a book club of a group of friends who have their own internal library for members. Haven't bought a new book in years.
- anonu 8y agoIt's funny I remember being in the library all the time as a kid. Nowadays when I want a book I go on Amazon and buy it. I recently rediscovered the public library. Took a bit of relearning when I realized, yeah, I get all these books for free!
- jesscxc 8y agoDoes a library support the authors/creators, though? That's probably my biggest philosophical hurdle.
