      Audiobooks and ebooks are always reserved for weeks or months for popular titles on the library services in my city. I use it for lesser known titles, but sometimes I want to read a book the day it comes out.

      The first app on the left is a library app. I think the ones under it might be library apps too.

        Exactly! Also “Kanopy” is a movie/TV Show app that works off your library cards. I’m just pointing out that people sleep on all the things having a library card offers today, it’s not just books. Free digital books, audio books, movies, shows, printing papers, activities for kids, classes for adults, some even have 3D printers etc.

          Kanopy is really nice but I read that it may be getting too expensive for libraries.

            That article is from 2019 and Kanopy is still around, I guess that’s a good sign 🤷🏻 lol
