Hello,
I am a classic user for several years, considering the redesigned cirriculm for this next year. How succesful have you been using the Library for most of your books? Just wondering what others experience has been.
Thanks,
Ellen

I found probably 60%-70% of the books in my local library system (ordering at home, online and picking up once a week). If I couldn't find the exact book for LG and UG, I used books from alternative list or substituted with similar choices. For read aloud books I used audio version, when possible.

I also use World Cat system through local library few times to find some specific needed books. The problem with this was that you never knew how long it would take to get the book and the borrowing period was usually one or two weeks.

We live in rural OH and I have still been able to get probably 90% of the books through ILL. I think in the 3 yrs. I've used TOG I've only had to buy 6 or 7 books. Ask your library if you are eligible for a teacher card. Our library allows homeschool moms to have one, which means no fines!

Thank you ladies, for taking the time to answer. I do borrow most of my books via ILL, just feeling a little hesitant about the newer books availability. Appreciate your input.
