I have three local library systems I can use. Two I can use for free and one I have to pay $15.00 a year as I am outside of their city limits.
I use the one I pay for the most as it has the best collection. The one thing I like least about that system is the charge for putting a hold on the book. I understand the .50 charge. It helps keep people from requesting a hold and never picking the book up. People that do that keep the book out of circulation for days and keep others who want the book from getting it. I just remind myself that it is cheaper pay .50 than to buy the book if it is one I really want to read.
The population has outgrown the library in the city where I live. It has no more room to expand so any time they get a book they have to pull a book out of circulation. I use it when they have the book I want but too often they do not.
The last one I can use for free does not let you keep the book very long. Like my local library it does not have that great a collection. I very seldom use it.
I do use my local libraries a lot. I love to read and enjoy getting my books from multiple sources.
