I cannot get over how easy it is to get materials from the King County Library System! I love it! I frequent the Redmond Regional Library most often.
The most amazing thing is that you can put books on hold via the Internet and have them sent to your local library for pick-up. This is a *huge* time saver for anyone who might not have a lot of it to kill actually going in and looking for a volume. KCLS will email you when your item is ready for pick-up.
Something else the Redmond Library has done recently is add self-check-out computers. No more standing in line, waiting and waiting. You just whip out your card, scan your items and go. It's awesome.
The only drawback to this particular branch is that the parking is usually PACKED. I am hopeful that when Redmond opens the new city hall and adjoining parking lot, this problem will be alleviated.
