Great (FREE) Deals at the Library!

I don't have to tell you that the price of practically everything is up. Gas is up. Food is up. Services are up. Heck, even the price of girl scout cookies is up! (Amazing to think that as a brownie, I sold samoas for $2 a box.) I'm probably not the only one feeling that everything is going up except paychecks.

Believe it or not, there are some things that aren't going up in price. Actually, they COST NOTHING at all! You may have guessed--things at the library are FREE!!! And we're not just talking about books. Or DVDs. Or using computers.

These days, expect the unexpected at the library--video games, board games, puzzles, music CDs, audiobooks, and MORE! Tired of paying for Netflix, Hulu, and other streaming services? Stream Kanopy from the library for FREE! Want to take a class and learn something new for the fun of it? Register for Universal Class for FREE! Not to mention we have other digital resources for books, audiobooks, music, language learning, newspapers, magazines, materials for kids and MORE all (you guessed it) for FREE!

So don't be shy and come over to the library to get some good FREE stuff! All you need is a library account, which we can make in minutes for anyone with a military ID. And if I may quote American author Anne Herbert, "Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries."

Wishing you the best from the perch.
