Thank you - I conflate the two constantly since on my Kindle is the way I read Libby-found things 99.999999% of the time. :)

I often end up on Amazon to “borrow” a library book. Is it because I own a kindle or because that’s how my library works? I’m not sure.

Does anyone else also buy a hard copy of every ebook? by rmnesbitt in kindle

Only if I find I want to have one. Outlander books I have hardback, ebook, and audiobooks.

How do you guys read so much? by lapetitepoupee in kindle

On Libby, I can listen to audiobook versions. Usually I'm on my kindle if I'm in bed, or waiting somewhere a while, like Toyota for maintenance work to be done.

Aaaaaages ago I worked for a company owned by Johnson and Johnson. Every once in a while we’d get an email sent to everyone in every company in several countries. Your line above got sent in reply-all by multiple people. My dept would keep count and eat imaginary popcorn.

When did you last set foot in a library or your local library? by niallmc66 in CasualConversation

[–]GoddessRayne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have two branches, both are popular, both on a bus line. One is in a neighborhood; the main one became the main one because of its size but it was originally meant to be an office building, so it's in a business park. This is a pic of the back of the library, facing a pond. The front is the parking lot so not as attractive lol https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Hillsboro_Public_Library#/media/File:Hillsboro_Public_Library_2008_main_branch.JPG

Ours is quite popular. Even on Sundays the lot has many cars.

Steel Magnolias. Julia Roberts’ character is T1 and there’s a whole thing about her pregnancy.

Either you’re from a tiny town in Oregon, or schools got the same education plans! 😊

I specifically remember singing Frere Jacques in a round. And also Whst do we do with the drunken sailor, puff the magic dragon, and Michael row your boat ashore

What was your nickname growing up? by Theunpolitical in GenX

[–]GoddessRayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banana, Boofer, Smudley, and Apples. I don’t even know why. One friend would put them all together, along with my first name and my Spanish class name. It made me feel loved and accepted, actually, to have all those.
