I want one. From Out-of-Print.

Blueberry @Megabooks I ordered one for @NataliePatalie (my daughter). She should receive it before she gets to looking at her Litsy and sees this. Haha 4y
Megabooks @Blueberry I didn‘t know she was your daughter! I think she‘ll like it! 😁💜 For me, it‘s just the right size, not too heavy, and sits well in my hand. It‘s held up well in the dishwasher too. 👍🏻👍🏻 4y

Picked up a few new library cards yesterday. 😍

LibrarianRyan I love the new DCL cards. When I worked there they were just blue. Boring!!!

Just curious, with prospector, why would you need cards from multiple libraries since you can request almost anything.

FYI Centennial has a stand alone library
5y
hes7 @LibrarianRyan I haven‘t heard of Prospector, but I picked them up for digital access (more audiobooks). 5y
LibrarianRyan @hes7 Prospector is (or used to be) a joint catalog for requesting from most of the libraries in the state. I'm suprised (not with DCL as they built their own platform) that you can have digital access from other libraries besides the district you reside in. It's unusual with platform pricing so that is awesome. 5y
See All 7 Comments
hes7 @LibrarianRyan Yeah, it‘s something I learned last week—most libraries in Colorado have this agreement that if you have a Colorado address, you can get a card. 5y
LibrarianRyan @hes7 Oh, I know all about that. It is part and parcel of prospector and colorado library law. DC even has a DCL library card as a mandatory school supply (I used to work at the Highlands Ranch Library (DCL), the Centennial library, The sheridan (ACL) library, and the Glendale library (ACL). We have similar things here, but reciprocal borrowers usually do not have access to digital services. 5y
hes7 @librarianryan Nice! Yeah, I was surprised to discover it, but depending on the library, there‘s access to Overdrive, hoopla, RB Digital... And I‘m not complaining. 5y
thecurlybookworm Nice! I have three for libraries in my state...but I should probably check their expirations! 5y

Going through my childhood bedroom at my parents‘ house trying to get rid of things so they don‘t have to. I‘m finding all sorts of treasures, like my first library card. I remember the field trip my first grade class made to the library to get these— maybe 1993 or 94. #litsyloveslibraries #raisingreaders

cherinium Is that the STL area Webster Groves? Do you still live in the area? 5y
emtobiasz @cherinium it is, and I still have family there, but I‘m just home for a visit— I live in Pennsylvania now. 5y

SassyBookworm @l.kadie I‘ll have to run that past her! She‘s not a big gamer but loves Minecraft. At the moment she‘s reading for school the Boy in the Striped Pajamas. She likes historical non/fiction & I had found the book (from a Litsy review) Between Shades of Gray that she is interested in to read for school. 6y
blithebuoyant @Chrysta23 I love historical fiction too! The Boy In The Striped Pajamas ruined my life though. 😂 6y

So my kindle has been acting a little funny lately & I think it needs to be re-booted with the 3G turned on. (Yes, it's old.) But, I don't want to lose all those hoarded library books, some of which I waited forever to check out but have not yet read. So here begins #ProjectKindle. I've read 3 in the last couple days (Magpie Murders, The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry, & Jane of Austin) but there are at least 8 more to go. 📚

#librarycardchallenge. There's 3 different councils in the county that I live in - but do they have the same card? No! This is meant to be changing though so hopefully I'll have less plastic soon!

melbeautyandbooks Here in TX each city has its own library card. I also have 3 library cards. Two libraries are within a couple miles of my house and the third is about 6 hours away. I only use them for ebooks. @DGRachel - Your library app sounds great! 7y
Mariposa_Bookworm @melbeautyandbooks I've been thinking about doing this too. Wake County has a larger library than our county. $25 a year an you can use their library if you don't live in that county. 7y
LauraBrook This is so interesting! There are 37 libraries in my county, and when you sign up for your local library card, you can use them at any library. It's really nice and makes sense. Plus, they have an app, so if I want to run in to pick up a hold, I just need my phone vs my wallet and purse. 7y
melbeautyandbooks @Mariposa_Bookworm - That sounds like a good deal. The Houston library doesn't charge as long as you are a Texas resident. They have ebooks that my local library doesn't. 7y
