Every time you borrow a book from a UK or Irish library, the book contributor/s, e.g. illustrator, author, translator, get a small amount of money if they are registered for Public Lending Right
ok i have another quote tweet prompt. what's something, big or small, related to your job or hobby, that most people don't know that you would like to have them know? it can be a concept, a piece of history, some vocabulary, or something else.

They're also free to join and no longer have late fees. They also lend out video games and systems, last I checked.

This is definitely regional; Irish libraries don't have fees, but the English libraries I'm a member of do (I ... may have racked up a few hefty fines by forgetting they don't auto-renew like academic libraries, oops). Best to check your local! Still worth it though and PLR is great as an author.
