Cringing at the expense of homeschooling? Do you take full advantage of your library?

Most libraries (atleast in Canada) have an online system that allows you to request and hold books - and not just from your local branch - from the entire library system. If you want books from other library systems, other provinces even, they can often get them for you through interlibrary loans.

For Waldorf inspired homeschoolers check in with your local Waldorf School, they are usually very friendly to homeschoolers and will let you borrow from their parent lending library. Your local anthroposophical society will have a lending library too (and usually many copies of books used in study groups.

Here's a snapshot of our current hold list. They'll trickle in at a pace we can manage.
