Toot

A moment of silence for the expiration of one of my library cards. I used it only for digital materials after I moved in 2020…and four years later, they have finally shut off my access, which can only be restored in person, with proof of residency which I can no longer provide.

It was a good run, and I appreciate everything that public library (and ALL public libraries) provided.

Maybe now I will find a library that will let me pay a fee for access as an out-of-area patron.

@amanda I am a nonresident card holder for digital only at Houston Public Library...can't remember if it was $45 or $75 a year. It was on a list in a BookRiot article. So many more Overdrive titles!
