📖besides free books (physical, digital, audio) the amount of stuff u have access to is wild.
i’m talking board games, sewing machines, language classes, coding lessons, cds and dvds (that you can rip and copy and kEEP - none of the librarians are gonna tell you shit for that), maker spaces, 3D printers, community events, ballet classes, movie nights, car repair lessons, resume help, free national park tickets, bat tours during october! It’s great!
And for free?!?? in thIS economy? Literally why pay for a coworking space when the library is Right there, with free wifi and quiet rooms all to yourself.
And if there are things you don’t see offered but want to? Ask! Or even better, offer!! Start your own thing, get to know your community members.
Utilize your third spaces, they’re great!!

📚It's FREE and depending on your local library system, having a library card also comes with:
- Hoopla: Lets you stream movies and check them out FOR FREE
- Libby: E-book collections so you can read books/magazines/etc for FREE
- Equipment rentals: Some libraries in my hometown have game consoles/musical instruments/etc that patrons can check out
And a bunch of cool stuff
The more active patrons there are, the more likely they'll keep their funding! Basically, support your local library! Get a card! Use the services!

🪪I feel like this is a constant rec on here but it really is such a game changer! First, it’s free. Like, honestly how awesome is it that we can just have access to such a vast amount of great literature, music, movies, articles & newspapers and even free Internet whenever we need it! Don’t spend money where you don’t need to, get a library card and go crazy.
There’s also some really great free online services provided via your library card like Kanopy (for movies) and Libby (for books).

Katharine Hepburn talks nonstop and Cary Grant wears glasses (and a feather boa trimmed robe) what more could anyone ever want !

😴Don’t get me wrong, I love a debaucherous night on the town into the early hours of a new day but I also love being home, face washed, teeth brushed, pjs on, in bed before midnight. I spent enough dollars, I drank enough, my social battery was used an appropriate amount, and now its time for me to reward myself for a job well done and to return to my habitat
