Works for Me Wednesday: Library by Mail

We love the library but we aren't always able to get there and living in a small town our library doesn't always have the books we want. Our local library is connected to a larger library system and yet it's a hassle to go 30 minutes to one of the main branches which happens to be in a part of the city we never get to. Years ago a friend hooked me up with the fact that I could get online at home and order books from the comfort of my own computer. Now, maybe all of you already knew this, but I didn't. Now, for the past 10 years or so this is what I've done 90% of the time. Back then I had dial up so I needed to use my modem and get the library's phone number (C: Now it's as easy as going to the library's website and ordering. But it's quick, easy and they come right to my door. With Joy UNquenchable,

  2. I do library stuff online, but then do you drive to the library to pick it up or have it mailed to you? Our library gives the option of mailing it to us, but they charge you for it!

  3. That is neat!! I am very very very close to our local library so I enjoy that convenience.....plus its nice to go there for a few hours and lose myself in all the books!

  4. I love this system, I use it all the time. It has saved me so much time! It is great for looking up when books are due back & if you have fines as well. Great service.
