I really enjoy using my guild library. I like previewing books I may want to buy, but especially like having it as a resource so I don’t feel a need to buy so many books. We include some quilting related novels too. When I have trouble sleeping I read a quilt book to relax and take my mind off whatever is bugging me. It helps me fall back asleep. We pay a church for the use of their building for our meeting and two workshop days each month. The dependable income helps the church and they allow us use of a locked walk in closet with shelves for our library. We lost books on the lower shelves to flooding in Hurricane Harvey. They were many of our newer books. We will eventually rebuild the collection. As members donate their used magazines they are sold to others for a quarter. That money is used for more books. We have a fine if the book is not returned, but it can be rechecked just by asking the librarian, even by phone or email. Our guild is large. We had about 90-100 members at our last meeting. I think a guild library is a real treat!
