In northern CA, I found a library in Sonoma County and another in Woodland County. I did not do any additional checking to see what the requirements are for a library card. One of our local library systems only requires that you be a CA resident, others may require that you live within their city, and others may have some other requirement. You can check it out!

I do know that a lot of the CA counties will give you a library card for their county if you have one in a different CA county. It's worth a try if you don't have TERC through your own county library.

lamar Wrote:thank you westerner! I bought REA clep book in ebay for sociology and have instacert. I am starting those. I just check book you said, and found 5th edition in ebay. will try to bid that one. still not sure of humanities. i am waiting for advisor's response. rather than clep, i feel dante world religion and ethics would be better for a nursing student. lets see what advice i get. everyone reading peterson, so i thought i am missing something.
sonoma county replied today and told me if i go there in person, they can issue me library card. i can't apply online. waiting for yolo county. going to go to our own library and talk and see how they can help me. i can't see anything online.
