Reading increase

Three years ago at age 73 I retired and suddenly found myself bored with nothing to do. I joined multiple libraries and found that I enjoyed reading and now had access to many books that I could read. It was a lifesaver for my mental health as I hardly ever read during my working years. I have increased my reading skills many hundreds %. Thank you libraries for having multiple genres to choose from.

Community Center

We have moved a lot around the state and libraries have always been the first places we go to in order to find community. As a new mom in San Diego, my local library (the Poway Branch), has been an invaluable resource to helping me start to connect with other moms in my area. It is a place where I can bring my baby and find engaging activities for him and for me as well. Library programming has been so important for my mental well being.

Online service terrific!

I am an inhome caregiver. It can be difficult for my husband and I to get out and about for very long. I have found the library sources through Libby and Hoopla to be so valuable! Thank you!
