The Arlington, VA public library has a Twitter Feed

Wow... I'm impressed... the Arlington VA Public Library has a Twitter account: http://twitter.com/ArlingtonVALib , not just that, then even have a Facebook page and a Flickr Photostream. Not to mention a page full of blogs: http://www.arlingtonva.us/departments/Libraries/events/BlogsRSS.aspx

Talk about staying on top of communications and reaching out to their users... I was looking forward to using the Arlington Public Library even before I moved here when I read about their site on a friend Ben's blog.

Anyways just wanted to share....

Remembering to renew over due library books

Late last week Ben pointed out a another reason that he loved the Arlington Public Library. I even commented that I like the same fact about the public library system here in Miami. I also mentioned that my only problem with the library was remembering to renew my books before they go over due. You'd think that would of been a great clue to myself to go an check the status of my books.... of course not.... 4 days later I'm finally checking the status and yes they were over due..... another $7 dollars down towards the purchase of new books at the MDPLS. Oh well may next time.
