My public library is so good. I just walked in and borrowed a language program (Pimsleur Cantonese audio CDs) that costs $500 if you buy it (better than any online course); 3 jazz vinyls, 6 DVDs of stuff I know I can’t easily get from streamers.

If I was short on time I could have added all those to my holds list yesterday and they would put them all in one place so I can just check out. Easy.

#SFPL is so important to me!

I’m also a member of San Jose Public Library. Any CA resident can sign up for SJPL online. As a member of SJPL you get access to Coursera including certified programs (though the certs just say ‘California library user’ instead of your name, but still pretty cool) through this state program. Somehow, San Francisco is not on the list.

@skinnylatte The fact that any CA resident can get a public library card from any city library in the state is my number one tip for new CA residents.
