The Lexington Public Library gets many of the new releases you find in video rental stores, as well as a lot of educational and independent documentaries and films. They have a large selection of childrens videos and dvds. Many of the films that have been in the collection for a few months are moved to the free 7-day borrowing area. Anything that says "free 7 days" can be checked out for a week at no charge, although there will be late fees if you fail to renew by phone or internet before the due date. All the new releases can be checked out for $1 per day, plus $1 per day in late fees if you can get back to the library the very next day. Pretty reasonable! Many of their dvds are listed by title in their online catalog at http://www.lexpublib.org. There are several branches of the public library all over Lexington, and you can reques a hold on a particular title on their web site, and select from a drop down list which branch you want to go to to pick it up. Very convenient, and I use their online catalog all the time. You can check out up to 35 items (books, videos, or what have you) at a time.
