Repairing Auto

I often wonder if my son’s generation will even know what a library is. A library holds books, and who needs books anymore? If I need to look something up, Google will guide me. If I want to read a novel, Kindle is there to accomodate. So where does that leave our neighborhood library. Even the most illiterate in computerese have some sort of Internet connection nowadays. But don’t dismiss the library just yet. There are gobs of resources hidden in those walls. History buffs still pile into the reference room to pore over the years of archived newspapers that may still contain uncovered references to their favorite studies. But what’s in there for auto repair? Lots! Many libraries have a more than decent collection of automotive reference books that range from the general “how it works” type of book to specific repair manuals you can use to fix your car! If you’re into saving money, take advantage of your local library.
