10 Ways Your Library Saves You Money

The Wi-Fi and high speed Internet access is free. And at the Library, there’s no pressure to buy something while you’re reading your email.

Check out books. Every time you check out a hardcover book, you’re saving about $25.

Attend a free concert or program. There’s always something interesting scheduled for adults, young adults or kids.

Free movies! Our collection of DVDs includes popular movies and TV series as well as educational, how-to, foreign films, and classics that might not be on the shelf at your local video store.

Cut down on cost and waste by borrowing our magazines and reading newspapers here. All the knowledge and fun, but less recycling for you!

Computer training is available either in-person or via our online Learning Express Library subscription to St. Charles Public Library cardholders.

Be frugal, green, and generous by purchasing low-cost items at our book sales.  You’ll be supporting the Library, getting a good deal, and reusing items, too.

 Free music! Our collection of CDs for adults and children is more than 30,000 strong!

Get professional research help. Ask a librarian in-person, online, or by telephone.

Digital and downloadable content is free. Ebooks, downloadable audio books, research databases, and more are available from our web site.
