I not only place books on hold to receive the exciting alert when they become available, but I also use the streaming services provided by my local library, where I discovered international movies that would have cost me a lot of money. Libby is fantastic—it's the best app for someone who loves audiobooks. Additionally, I'm part of three different book clubs. If I were more independent, I would take part in even more activities offered. The library has Dungeons and Dragons groups for teens, and you have the opportunity to meet authors. Unlike many institutions where you feel you have to donate money to support them, simply visiting the library shows that it is valued.
I apologize for my passion for the library, but I truly love it. I worked in a community college library and have several disabilities. The library was perfect in accommodating my needs, and my manager considered me one of her best employees. Generally, I would keep a job for only about six months, but I worked in the library for two years.
unsung benefit i think a lot of ppl are sleeping on with using the public library is that i think its a great replacement for the dopamine hit some ppl get from online shopping. it kind of fills that niche of reserving something that you then get to anticipate the arrival of and enjoy when it arrives, but without like, the waste and the money.

I can’t believe I didn’t learn earlier that most libraries have ebooks and audiobooks for download. This includes your local library, which might be hosting these books via Overdrive, Libby, Cloudlibrary, and much much more!

Reading this while watching the news from Afghanistan. Two countries, two different approaches, same result in the end. #currentlyreading #nonfiction #bookworm #bookstagram #supportlocallibraries #syria

Library book haul! I've been interested in checking out 'Unmask Alice' for a while, my library just recently got a copy in, and 'Anna' has been sitting in my brain rent-free for weeks. I find Anna Wintour to be a deeply fascinating fashion icon and I'm excited to learn more about her life. Go support your local libraries! . . . . . . . . #books #book #unmaskalice #anna #goaskalice #annawintour #library #supportlocallibraries #publiclibrary #satanicpanic https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpqi9hgPFQM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Haven't finished the book yet but oooooi I have so many thoughts on this one. I don't have children and don't plan to but my heart was aching. In what I can only suppose is a fraction of what the mothers feel. If there isn't some kind of pay off or correcting done at tge end , it's gonna ruin the rest of my week. The author did a wonderful job<3

Yo, I’ve been reading for almost three weeks and it’s honestly the craziest, most disturbing book that I’ve read in a long time. It’s so well written.
The ways that these mothers are punished for simple, albeit sometimes terrible mistakes and all too easy to make mistakes is honestly nuts.
The school is terrifying. I don’t know what else to say tbh. It’s freaky. I find it truly fascinating tho.

“Libraries literally aren’t just a place to obtain books for free. They’re one of the few public spaces left in our society where you’re allowed to exist without the expectation spending money.”

#TheLieandHowWeToldIt by #TommiParrish is a beautiful book, and all I can suggest is you go to @gaysthewordbookshop, or at any other #queerbookshop, and buy your own copy! Asking your local library to stock a copy isn’t a bad idea either 💁🏻♂️ . #SupportLocalLibraries #SupportLibraries #LoveLibraries .

A really powerful book. Every chapter I read, I found parallels to Canada’s current situation. Let’s not become numb to the numbers. “But I came to realize that I knew relatively little about my hometown's relationship to the centuries of bondage rooted in the city's soft earth, in the statues I had walked past daily, the names of streets I had lived on, the schools I had attended, and the buildings that had once been nothing more to me than the remnants of colonial architecture. It was all right in front of me, even when I didn't know to look for it ... Our country is in a moment, at an inflection point, in which there is a willingness to more fully grapple with the legacy of slavery and how it shaped the world we live in today. But it seems that the more purposefully some places have attempted to tell the truth about their proximity to slavery and its aftermath, the more staunchly other places have refused.” #currentlyreading #nonfiction #bookworm #bookstagram #supportlocallibraries #africanamericanauthor #americanhistory #slavery #cdnpoli #cancelcanadaday #everychildmatters
