Not sure who needs to hear this today, but remember, your local public library benefits from being used! Usage statistics are how librarians argue for funding! By using this shared service more, you are making it BETTER for everyone else!

It's the glory of the commons, not the tragedy of the commons. Go to the library!!!

@joannarifkin I love my library! But they have increasingly turned toward automation over personal interaction, a move that has a negative effect on our community here in Central Oregon. Why talk to a real human when you can order your books online and check the books out yourself at a giant glowing terminal? Ugh.
