County of Los Angeles Public Library sent me an email about FREE Online Classes from Lynda.com , see attachment , it works I just signed up , haven't read the small print, let me know if there's any catch

I stumbled into this , I thought I had signed up for lynda already so I tried to lookup my login info from my email - that's when I saw the email from my library

Yep, Sacramento Public Library just added support for free Lynda accounts too. It's been awesome!

The Cincinnati Library also has this but unfortunately the Lynda app doesn't recognize library accounts.

I checked with the City of Austin library and they don't have it. They mentioned that it is popular. We are paying taxes through the roof here with no relief in sight so I hope they add it soon. Thank you for sharing.

Not sure if my library provides it but my University does provide us access for 'free' with our current student enrollment. (TTU if anyone was wondering) Might be worth checking out if you're still in school! Works with their app as well!

California residents can sign up for a Yorba Linda Public Library e-Card to access these classes.

Are you kidding me. No state income tax, moderate sale and use tax and granted a higher than average property tax, and you're bitching about taxes in TX?

Ever lived in NY or CA? I'm not even going to mention HI here.
