Library cards aren't just for books! (literature.cafe)

Libraries tend to offer a lot more than just books as a benefit for having a library card, depending on where you live they will sometimes offer movies/tv shows online, digital magazines & newspapers, language learning courses, wifi hotspots, even gardening supplies or 3D printing! It's crazy how much libraries tend to offer.
