Good things from Essex

[undyingking]

Essex County Library makes available free on its website a load of online reference works, including an OED subscription. Plus a bunch of free ebooks you can download. You just have to join the library.

"But what good is that to me, I don't live in Essex!" you exclaim. (Unless you're sielis or waistcoatmark.)

Well, you don't have to -- you can join it from any UK postal address. It looks like you do have to physically visit one of the libraries to turn your e-membership into a shiny library card, but all the same that's pretty good I think. Three cheers for Essex!

Mm, and of course apart from a bit of bandwidth it's no real skin off their back to do so.
