TAL Online - a Success Story
I recently found TAL online, I posted about it about a month ago, and I have achieved success! TAL is an online program where you can borrow books and stuff from any library across Alberta! May not seem like a big deal to some, but to me, it is a godsend. Again, I read A LOT, and I have a hard time finding some books I have been looking for. The library doesn't always have the authors I am looking for, out of print books, that kind of thing. The book I received today is from Lethbridge, and I have been looking for it for ages. A Valerie Frankel book - I have read everything from her except 3 books, and I have gotten the first one. These books are out of print, not in my library system and to order them from Chapters, EBay, or Amazon will cost a lot more than I am willing to spend. My desire to get these books crossed of my "to read" list helped me find TAL online. I am so happy! It may take a while to get the books, but they are still free under my library card (best $12 a year I've ever spent) and they have had everything that I've been looking for. That's one more problem off my list. How did we ever live without the Internet though?
