The public library has something for almost everyone. Ours does, anyway. I love a good value for one's property tax dollar.
Why, just this weekend I passed my Technician and General class ham radio exams, having studied the license manuals available from the library.
And now it's time to move from theory to practice.

I have worked at 100's of #PublicLibrary s, doing my juggling show
California, Nevada, Arizona— same good scene everywhere
Summer reading program supports good reading habits
Learning how to be a library visitor, checking out/ returning books, the pleasure of discovering new facts—

@tuckerteague I really enjoyed her book Coming To My Senses... I've now requested this one through inter- #library loan, thanks for the recommendation!

@amandaz that's my library network! I'm back in MA after a while in CA. And yes, good advice, I will ask one of the librarians... #publicLibrary
Hopeful about my #publicLibrary picks today. Top 3 were requested, bottom 3 I just picked off the "new stuff" shelves... 🤞

Charles Webb, The Graduate (it's the novel the movie was based on)
DVD, Seasons One and Two of Moonlighting
Hannah Pillard, We Are Too Many
Natalie Haynes, Stone Blind
Elliot Ackerman, Halcyon

I'm also looking for some seasons of #Cybill that aren't available streaming or through #publicLibrary inter-library loan. Actually they *are* through #hoopla but we hit our monthly limit already 😆

@fullyabstract Agreed. I actually am usually happy to wait and get DVDs of things through inter-library loan at my #publicLibrary , but this isn't available in our system.
Summer Reading Club starts this week at Guelph Public Library! https://www.guelphpl.ca/.../summer-reading-club.aspx...
What line will you be working on completing over the next two and a half months?
I'm reading Stephen King's The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower, so when I finish it I need to decide if it counts as Fantasy or as a Book over 500 pages.

I use #Libby for other #libraries I have ecards with and it's wonderful! But my local #PublicLibrary system uses #CloudLibrary. When the change was made from #Overdrive to #RBDigital, I was ok with it. #Overdrive confused a lot of our patrons & it was a headache trying to explain it to them. But #CloudLibrary is just wonky. It's not bad. I guess it's user-friendly, but it's not good, you know?

@bodhidave Great! More good news at the #PublicLibrary system level. 👍. ..I’m still concerned about the #SchoolLibraies & #ClassroomLibraries (public & private) which have been especially targeted by those who hate & seek to divide. They’re controlled by Board members of individual school districts.

@edithfrost Check with your #publicLibrary . I can get access to the NYT (web site or app) via the public library, for 72 hours. And it's renewable right away and unlimited. It's awesome.
Much like parents were the worst at the #PublicLibrary, faculty are the worst in the #AcademicLibrary. They think that their status gives them the freedom to go wherever they want or do what they feel like. Like no ma'am. This reading room is the only space you can visit in #SpecialCollections. #LibraryLife

@Jen and it's available as an ebook from my #publicLibrary ! yay! Will check it out soon.
Really annoying thing going on with my library…when I check out an audiobook often the files will disappear from the library’s catalog even before I’m due to return them. I’ve had this happen right in the middle of three different books recently and had to find new books to read and the selection is very limited!!
