Re: Do you have to pay to use the library?
We moved a few streets over and into a different town. Our new town library carries a lot of the newer books so I like them for that. But the old town's library was large and carried a lot of material needed for things like research when the kids were in school and before they could use the computers for the work. So we kept our membership in the old library. The new one is free, the old one is a fee. I pay once a year. It used to be for a family membership--about $30. Now I just pay for myself, I believe it is $20. I could have the books sent over as part of the intralibrary loan programs, but I love my old library and don't mind spending an afternoon browsing. They got me through many a tough time. The fee is because I no longer live in the town--even though I still live in the county.
