       Just a quick reminder!In California, the Los Angeles Public Library allows you to get a library card even outside of LA, as long as you live in California.With your, #LAPL account you have access to a lot of program including free #LinkedinLearning and #Coursera.https://lapl.org/education-researchOther Public libraries probably offer the same.

       Lots of other states might have similar situations, so always check what kinda cool things your libraries offer.

       @art My understanding is that this is frequently a condition of state funding for local libraries. Basically every library in California will offer library cards to every California resident. New York is the same way as far as I know.

       @pganssle That's the way I understand it. Didn't know that New York did the same thing, that's very cool.

       @art is there a way for me to get a card other than pick it up in person? The registration page makes it look like I can't,  may be a bit of gatekeeping. https://lapl.org/about-lapl/borrower-services#apply

       @art that says county residents only. Does it work anyway?

       @art nope, doesn't work. Not surprised; I imagine they mostly want this for folks in and around the county. Too bad I was hoping for another Libby account ;-)
