    A buddy rents all his video games there. He hasn’t bought a game in several years. As he has two younger children it’s nice to save the money I’m sure.

    So if you’re a budget gamer this is smart! You don’t even need to be a patient gamer it seems. He’s been renting games that have come out just weeks before.

    His library (and mine) only offer console games. Not helpful for us PC gamers.

    Usually I just use the library online. Recently they made me come in to renew my card. While I was there I looked at the movies and saw one that I had just rented on Amazon. Face Palm.

    I use Hoopla to read comic books on the train. Just download before you hit a tunnel.

    Books, e-books, library of things, games, reading clubs, meeting spaces, computer access, community; libraries are an amazing resource and pillar of healthy communities.

    the main branch in Vancouver used to(might still, but don’t live there now) have a full on recording studio you could book sessions and rent almost any kinda instrument and/or equipment you wanted. did a few recordings there and it was awesome. sound isolation booths and all sorts of studio monitors and headphones. really cool stuff
