I'm on leave from my amazing trans and nonbinary choir because baby, but they need support! Here's their message:

"Friends, we need your help. With the cancellation of our concert, grants coming in much lower than expected, and our fundraiser having low attendance, we are critically low on money going into the summer. If you want to see STANCE stay alive, we need your support. Please donate if you can, and share even if you can't."

So, something I heard recently on my local NPR station on borrowing ebooks vs. hardcover from your local library:
Apparently, the library pays ~$15 for a hardcover book, but ~$150 for the ebook - and the ebook is a LIMITED LICENSE for, say, 52 loans of that book. After which they have to pay ANOTHER $150 for the book, AGAIN.

The takeaway here: If you can get the hardcopy from the library instead of borrowing an ebook, please do so. The impact on their budget will be SIGNIFICANT.
