They don't even use library cards - just ask for my name. And if I visited a bit more regularly, they wouldn't even have to do that, LOL.) However, I still keep a card for a "not quite so local" library with a MUCH better selection, including books on CD - so I will definitely be checking that out. :-) -- Kitty (TDC Bashful) remove "whiskers" to e-mail |
