We've consistently been rated the top in the nation, either this year or last year we were named Library of the Year so yes, I know I'm lucky! And I take advantage of it! I'm looking forward to trying out the downloadable books section of the library now that I have my nook! They have a pretty good selection there as well!:DMolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15535404585690225142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-2181772025795367932011-01-13T20:59:34.375-05:002011-01-13T20:59:34.375-05:00LOL, yeah, rub it in, Mollie!!

It'd be fun if I checked what books out of your list is available at my library :) <br /><br />anyway, seeing your numbers, no wonder you enjoy the library so much! :Pnathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-81525794888866010872011-01-13T13:21:17.046-05:002011-01-13T13:21:17.046-05:00Do we need to take a field trip to the library?! :...Do we need to take a field trip to the library?! :D The Hard Rd. branch is pretty close to you!Molliehttp://bookfaredelights.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-11539541640153495422011-01-13T12:20:41.524-05:002011-01-13T12:20:41.524-05:00Man, I need to start going to the library more oft...Man, I need to start going to the library more often!

Don't figure anyone else is as interest in it as I am but I thought I'd share anyway! :D <br /><br />Linda, Oh I didn't think to add in my library fess. You're right even with what I had to pay in fees it was sill a bundle of cash that I saved! I'll keep that in mind for 2011!<br /><br />Rowena, Yes, although I still spent way to much money on books...notice I conveninetly didn't put up THOSE numbers! :D (Not that I was keeping track either).<br /><br />Cath, It's nice to quantify my use of library resources. I got a nook for xmas so I'm looking forward to trying out my libraries e-book system this year!Molliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15535404585690225142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-11459267019292625152011-01-13T04:36:37.874-05:002011-01-13T04:36:37.874-05:00I'm staggered at how much you saved.

I've never thought of that before but will certainly do so in future, seeing as I tend to read about 20 - 30 books a year from the library!Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-51239014074069320182011-01-12T13:17:54.925-05:002011-01-12T13:17:54.925-05:00Wow, that's a lot of money you saved sweets!

I know that it's probably saved me a ton because I pretty much always read from the library before I buy a book, unless it's from a favourite author.Ashley @ Book Labyrinthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395484656811182553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769151592208320820.post-86515099941145304162011-01-12T12:12:08.659-05:002011-01-12T12:12:08.659-05:00What a great illustration of the value of librarie...What a great illustration of the value of libraries!
