Annmarie and I went to the newly renovated Potrero Hill Branch Library on Sunday and picked up our new library cards.
Annmarie picked out three books to take home. I have feeling she is not going to like it when we have to return the Wheels on the Bus book.
Check out the view. 
I have not been a user of the Public Library system in quite some time. I love LOVE buying new books. I love bookstores; am captivated by book cover art and love the feel of new books. But in an effort to save some money, I'm going to try and use the library. It's also a great resource to get books on CD. And I know this is not new to most people, but it's totally interactive. You can save books, renew items, etc.- all online. They'll even e-mail you when your request is filled. Awesome.

P.S. Did you notice AM's new haircut? Post about that forthcoming.

I was just going to ask if she got a haircut! It looks really good. I was mildly obsessed with the library as a kid, but I will admit I haven't used it the way I should as an adult. I am totally there with you on the love of bookstores and I am hard on books--I love them a lot and I read them in the bathtub--which doesn't bode so well for library books. I also have a hard time sometimes finding what I am looking for, as our branch has a somewhat limited selection. When I commuted on the train I was better about it because I was going through several a week. I hope they have a story time at your branch-that's the best part about ours.
