I've not being using them much until recently when I realised that unless they get used some smartass will decide they aren;t needed anymore and cut them. So now when I read a good review I try and order it from my local library.
Same here. The only difference is the due dates are stricter when the Round Lake library obtains a book from another nearby library. James Ellroy's latest is at the top of the TBR stack and came from the Northbrook library, which means I better get it back on time. (Or risk the wrath of fines of 20 cents a day -- how quaint).
