Before I moved, I occasionally used the libraries of two guilds, usually to preview books that I might want to purchase.
I think my new guild has a library, but I don't know how big it is or how to check out the books. I know that they occasionally sell books that were donated during the meetings, and I sometimes buy those. At this point I have way too many quilting books and am trying to go on a book diet, as well as a fabric diet.
