to use and easy to get stats. We decreased our CD, DVD, Video Games & Reference budgets to finance it. Freegal has done what we thought it would -- bring in some new patrons and re-energize our current patrons. It is different from most library services,
you are not paying anyone to select the items, order them, process them shelve them, check them out, send out overdues, replace them and so on . It is a new way to do business.
