Save money, go to the library!

Going to the library is a great option for anyone trying to stretch their entertainment budget.   Libraries in our area are members of the PINES Network-

- from georgialibraries.org

A program of the Georgia Public Library Service, Georgia Library PINES (Public Information Network for Electronic Services) is the public library automation and lending network for more than 275 libraries and affiliated service outlets in almost 140 counties.

PINES creates a statewide "borderless library" that provides equal access to information for all Georgians. Georgians with a PINES library card have access to materials beyond what is available on their local shelves and enjoy the benefits of a shared collection of 9.6 million books and other materials that can be delivered to their home library free of charge.

If you are a resident of Georgia, you are eligible to receive a free PINES library card. Visit a participating PINES facility for additional information.

There is definitely a lot more than books in the library!  We brought home several DVDs (including a couple blu-rays) and CDs along with a plethora of books. There were even video games available in the Villa Rica library.  I also spent a few minutes researching some ideas for our explorations in several reference books that are available.  There was a selection of books on the topic of local history that I am sure many people would find interesting.

Anything FREE is worth checking out!
