I got a library card as soon as I could.
I changed my address with the post office, checked the mail everyday (mailbox is outside, down two flights, and like 100 feet away), and rushed to get the card as soon as I got the letter proving my residency. It was awesome. I could read again! We had to leave our books in PA for reasons I won't go into (to prevent anger!).
Libraries have always been a wonderful, quiet refuge to me. Santa Fe's public library is no exception. It might not be huge, but nothing in Santa Fe is huge except the number of galleries.
Anyway, I had a point other than stating my love for libraries. There are no late fees here !!!!! Omg, right? Haa. Borrowing privileges may be suspended after two weeks, but they don't charge you! I feel as though due dates are probably not respected as much, but damn, man, I don't owe them a dime! I'm returning my book today that was due on Tuesday. I feel a little irresponsible, but they aren't going to charge me!
Idk, maybe it's not that exciting. Or maybe it is!
