I think I have written before that my most important card is my library card. I love to read, and checking out books and DVDs is a great asset for me.
But sometimes, the library does not have the books I want. Especially some of the mysteries, that I like to read in order they were written. So, sometimes, I do inter-library loan. Which used to be free, but now has a fee of $3.00 attached. Sometimes, it is cheaper to buy a used book on a web site like AbeBooks http://www.abebooks.com/, or Alibris http://www.alibris.com/books. Sometimes, I buy from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/ or Barnes and Noble http://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/books/_/N-29Z8q8. So, tonight, I went on a shopping spree, and purchased several books to read in the various series that I read regularly. That will be nice, because the library does have several more books in each of the series.
