I have a few county libraries in my area that is under the Los Angeles County network of libraries. If my local library doesn't have the book I'm looking for (which I can search for online), I can request it and I'll get a notification when it gets there (it also tells me which library does have it, so I can go there to pick it up right away). New books (and books Oprah recently recommended) take a little longer to arrive, but there's plenty of books to keep me busy while I wait for them. Account information (due dates, renewals) can be found online as well, and I can return books at any library that's part of the network, no matter where I checked them out. Super convenient, and FREE.
