Library DVD Borrowing Is Booking

Historically during tough times, people flock to libraries to read books. Many libraries around New York City have noted the recent increase in visitors. Unknown to many however, most libraries have a huge assortment of DVD titles as well as printed materials. As the economy worsens, savvy New Yorkers are borrowing DVDs from local libraries rather than renting them at Blockbuster-like outlets. It’s convenient, too. DVD selections may be made online and put on hold for pickup. Library DVD rentals are FREE … but watch out for those infamous “late return” fines!
