    Libraries allow you to check out 100 books? Last time I used my card to check out books there was a limit to 10., which seemed plenty to me.

      Depending on what we’re researching on, we sometimes need like various books. Used to have to research all of them while in the library, but now we kinda read everything online. Though we plan on going back to the library again for researching stuff :P

      I’ve seen homeschooling moms check out dozens and dozens of kids books at once. Plus you could use multiple cards if you’re planning some grand arson demonstration, I guess.
