**What's awesome about your library?**
So I'm on my local library (and on my regional) library board and we are brainstorming some programming and service ideas to try for the new year...
so tell me about your library...what you love ...what you hate...what you wish you had.
If you dont go to your library- telling me why would be helpful too...
TIA!

Re: **What's awesome about your library?**
I honestly don't go to the physical library as often as I would like, but I do love the fact that I can borrow audiobooks and ebooks online.
Some of the programs that my local library has that I think are great and would like to try sometime are the lunchtime book club (bring your lunch and discuss a book) and some of the local history presentations (i.e. local historic mansions, notable people from our area,etc.)
For someone who grew up working in a library, I am ashamed to say I never go to one anymore. I just don't feel the need to. I buy a few books now and again to read (more so when I do book club) but overall I usually get my stuff on Amazon or bookstores. I am horrible about returning things ontime... When I worked at the library, they could zap away my late fees, and it was a good thing! Oy.
My parents really like some of the children's programs at our home library. I think they take my niece there for little programs during the day when they babysit. I am sure once our kiddo is old enough to do stuff, we'll want those services and the books too.
When I was in school libraries were obviously key for getting work done. I just think that now because I work so much, I don't get enough time to read and use a library.
