I had to share this blog post from Family Matters With Amber by guest blogger Frank Zubek: Affordable Entertainment for Families. Frank writes about all of the great FREE things the library offers, including movies, books, audio books, computers, Internet access, programs, story hours, author visits, etc. etc. etc.

I'm already a big user and proponent of libraries, but Frank's post reminded me of the many reasons I have grown to love these incredible assets to our communities.
