I love the public library, most particularly the ACPL (Allen County Public Library.) It has many wonderful features which I have written about in previous blogs, but today I discovered a brand new feature.
I picked up three books today that were on hold for me. I had requested them on Monday so I was very pleased with the turn around time.
I usually ask for paper print outs of my check out information, just out of habit, (they do make handy bookmarks) but I seldom look at them closely.
Today however, I took time to read the fine print and it said "You just saved $30.99 by using your library. You have saved $649.61 this past year and $1,822.33 since you began using the library!"
Since I've been using this same county library system since I was about eight years old, I suspect that the total saved is actually quite a bit more, but I'm sure they don't have personal records that far back. It's just too bulky to keep all those stone tablets.
