6 Things You Didn’t Know Your Library Card Could Do

When Andrew Carnegie began opening libraries in southwest Pennsylvania in the 1890s, he wanted to bring books and knowledge to everyone — not just those who could afford to pay. Now libraries are taking that spirit beyond the printed word, offering everything from power tools to ukuleles to genealogy databases. We’re exploring the unique collections available for you to check out at local libraries.  Take our survey! We’re doing an audience survey to learn more about our listeners, so we can make City Cast Pittsburgh an even better, more useful podcast for you. We’d be grateful if you took the survey here–it’s only five minutes long. Anyone who takes the survey will be eligible to win a $250 Visa gift card. One more time, that’s at citycast.fm/survey Want some more Pittsburgh news?  Make sure to sign up for our morning newsletter Hey Pittsburgh.
