TheRoyalOs Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 I've gone from partying 24/7 on my first cruise to now asking about the library for my upcoming one. I'm finally growing up in my middle age. How does the library work? Is it an honor system or do you scan books out with your sea pass? Same for games?

I don't know if I will actually go there, but its good info to know if I forget my Kindle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellcee Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 @TheRoyalOs It's been a few years since I used it but the last time I signed a sheet with my information and what book I took. I lost my Kindle on the plane ride and wound up going through 2 books from the library. YOLO, tiny260 and DublinFC 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coneyraven Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 I wonder if the library will accept donations of books..... I have many old paperbacks at home that are taking up space, I would gladly donate them to the cause. YOLO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for games? Last time I was in a Library there was a log book where you signed the book or game out from where you enter basic info like name and date. I am pretty sure that returns are on the honor system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the trick is to accidentally "forget" your book after you finish it reading in the library. Then by default it becomes a donation.....

One for ship books being returned and one for donations. All books in the library had a large sticker "Property of Royal Caribbean" so it seems they accept donations and brand them so they become permanent ship library books. I haven't seen this approach on other ships but I haven't put a lot of research into the libraries across the fleet.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FroggyFlo Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Does anybody know if Harmony has got a library? I doubt however that I'll have many moments to read (even hope not!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
