While the Central Library is currently the only branch to have its own blog, other branches will be added soon, so check back for your local branch.
Use the new enhanced My Library Account (which offers an ezlogin option) to renew books, check hold status and suspend holds, save searches, save lists and even provide others with an rss feed of your saved lists.
You can also use the traditional catalog's account feature, which also allows on-line fine payments.
