i have not tried too hard to get this sorted because i can still get to e books
one annoyance is that they mostly automated the physical library so everything is done with card swipes/ scanners and machinery - get in, borrow, returns-
the actual human librarians clock in for very few hours a week. It's also the place where I need to go to renew my expired bus pass, but as we are in lockdown that's not worth doing either.
