03.12.2025 15:13 β π 6 π 3 π¬ 0 π 1Hello friends,
Your librarian here with a tip.
If we don't have the book you want and we can't purchase it, use interlibrary loan, essentially borrowing the book from another library system. Your friendly local library staff can get you started on how to use it.
We're not boycotting them hard enough
03.12.2025 15:05 β π 15 π 1 π¬ 2 π 0A couple weeks ago we got a lovely note from someone on the other side of the country thanking us profusely for ILLing a book to them. Curious, we looked up the book they borrowed.
It would have cost $1,200 for them to purchase it.
ILL is one of the things I love most about libraries.
If elected, I will implement a 6 hour workday with an 8 hour pay

I just finished this audiobook. Harvey Fierstein's autobiography is a ride through his life, primarily his life as a playwright and stage actor. It's a good listen. He's very committed to his beliefs and I have to admire that.
