You sound a lot like me. The only thing I check out of the library is audio 
books!
 
However, I do buy books off the local library sale shelves (hard covers $1-$2, 
paperbacks $0.10 at one library and $0.50 at another) and I live for library 
book sales (especially on the last day when they have an 'everything you can 
fit into a paper bag' for $3 sale) 
The used book store near me is awfully expensive in comparison (and I love 
being able to give money to a good cause... and sometimes sneak a book I bought 
there previously back onto the shelves!). It's unfortunate that not all 
libraries have ongoing or even annual/semi-annual book sales.

Of course, since I show up to the library every Saturday and leave with my arms 
full of 10-20 books I bet they wonder what in the world I'm doing with them 
all! So addictive...
