What's the difference between subscribing and a library membership?
Subscribing to Twist & Ply on Substack is free. Library memberships are purchased through Substack too, as paid subscriptions. A paid membership (Supporter, Scholar, or Sustaining Scholar) lets you borrow books; the free subscription brings you the journal.
Will I hear when library memberships open?
Yes. Subscribers are the first to know when paid memberships open, and they hear about classes before they appear on the website.
