Day 12

In your own space, create your own challenge. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


Sometime in the coming week, use your local library.

Get a card if you don't have one already. Use it to borrow something you've been meaning to get to for a while now - an album by a band you've been meaning to get to, a novel by an author you've wanted to try, a movie you saw a while back and want to see again. The book of concept art from Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse - which I got today and is utterly fabulous, well worth the short wait time it was on hold.

See what else they offer besides traditional media: book sales, film screenings, craft classes, gaming afternoons. Have they got a special set of collections that aren't allowed offsite but are worth the visit, like a fabulous map room or vintage children's books? Set aside a couple of hours and indulge yourself. Maybe you've got a Library of Things nearby - go and see what's on offer.

If you can't make it to the library: see what online services they're hosting. Ask a reference question. Borrow an ebook. Watch a movie. Get a recommendation for something in their collections and then place a hold on that so when you've got time to head over, there's going to be something waiting for you.
