Library cards aren't just for books! (self.libraries)

Libraries tend to offer a lot more than just books as a benefit for having a library card, depending on where you live they will sometimes offer movies/tv shows online, digital magazines & newspapers, language learning courses, wifi hotspots, even gardening supplies or 3D printing! It's crazy how much libraries tend to offer.

It’s amazing how many people don’t realize this.

My library has Blu-ray movies available, with rumors that 4k movies might be coming. Most of the movies are still DVD.

My own local library offers hobby kits to check out and try a new hobby. Knitting, weaving, cross stitch, etc
