They also rent board games. It great for mystery games like Unlock that you can only play once or twice.
Where I live most museums give a discount if you have a library card. Best investment ever (the 10 min it took to get the free card)
Reminder to vote for any library funding levy in your area. They depend on it to stay open.
Fucking sucks that libraries are starting to implement anti-homeless policies, as that’s the only place a lot of them can get peace during the day
Thankfully, I've not heard of that around here. The public library I worked at was chill about everyone visiting, including several people I'd consider "problems": dude that always sat next to the teen section and complained the teens were loud while being louder than any teen, and other dude that would sit in the middle of a row of public computers and turn off the ones on either side because she didn't want to sit next to anyone else.
The only time we kicked anyone out was when someone was vaping. The only time someone got banned was when they were racist in response to being told they couldn't vape in the library.
ETA: "around here" is suburban New England
I only use my card for software access.
With just Libby, Hoopla, and Mango Languages, The card has saved me thousands of dollars.
Ebooks for the win. I “go to” my library all the time by finding an ebook on Libby and downloading to a reader
My local library doesn’t use Libby, and it makes me want to riot every time I think about it. They use another app called cloudLibrary, which is inferior in every way; It doesn’t even have e-reader support. You’re forced to read the books on your phone or desktop, because cloudLibrary refuses to integrate with third-party services like Amazon or B&N for kindle or nook. You can’t even download the ebooks. You have to view them in the app or on your desktop browser, and it basically loads a page at a time.
Needless to say, I own library cards to all of the libraries in the surrounding cities, because all of those use Libby.
This is a national post, without any science
But how are they doing that without any profit motive?
/s
They'll also give you New York Times and Wall Street Journal access for when the paywall bypass stops working. At least mine does
Yes
I got a library card when I moved to this town and haven’t showed up there since.
