Feedback on Library TipLibrary Requests -"Even if your library doesn't have the book you are looking for, request it. Often they will order it for you or get it from another library."
Start a Book ExchangeMost people know that libraries are a great way to save money on books. Another way to save money is a book exchange with friends and family. An easy way to do this is to set up an email list with everyone that wants to participate and post the books you have available to share to the list.
Book Trader ClubsJoin a book trader club and get books for free. All you do is mail the books you don't want to other people and order the books you want to read from the books listed on the websites.
Re-read The Books You HaveHow many of us see a movie a second, third, or even more times and always find something we missed? Well, it's no different when reading a book. Our brains cannot absorb all the information the first, second, or even third time around.
Sign Up for Library AlertsMany libraries have a "pre-minder" service. You sign up to receive an email, text message, or automated phone call a few days before your materials are due. At that point you can go online and renew your items.
Frugal Refurbished EreaderYou may not consider the purchase of an ereader as frugal but in my case, it is. Our "local" library is 60 mile round trip. Then the books have to be returned. Consequently I've not been able to enjoy reading a book in several years.
