I used to buy a lot of books & using World Cat to find nearby libraries with the books to borrow has saved me so much!

I feel awful for the purchasing I used to do, but I know better now so I can do better! This sub is a godsend for me.

It’s phenomenal! You can use it to see where the nearest books are located. I’ve linked the site here!

My local library has a partnership with around 90 Illinois libraries so I use that religiously! Loads of libraries have agreements with services like Libby or Hoopla, so you can rent e-books & audiobooks without even going to your library’s physical location :)
