Generally speaking, there are provincial libraries and municipal libraries in provincial capital cities. Here in Jinan, both libraries can borrow books as long as they have library cards. The library is divided into a newspaper area and a book area, and the maximum borrowing volume in the two areas does not exceed 10. No more than 5 in each category.

To borrow books, you need to bring your ID card and pay a deposit. I did give it to 300 yuan. And then never pay again. Of course, if you don't want to do it, you can get a refund with your ID card.
