The only downside to Lynda.com is that it costs anywhere from $20 per month to $35 per month depending on which plan you take. That’s far cheaper than a formal education, of course, but it’s still a steep price to pay.

The potentially good news is that you may be able to access all of Lynda.com for free. All you have to do is visit one of your local libraries and see if they provide free Lynda.com access to members (library membership is free).

If so, you can access Lynda.com from anywhere using the library’s own web portal, so you won’t even have to physically be in the library building. The only catch is that there may be a limit to how many simultaneous users are allowed through your library.

1. I just checked our library system that serves my area and they just added (this year) the Lynda.com services. They are available in house and from my computer or mobile device. Thank you for providing your article. Since I work in IT and web development for my local school system, this will be a great resource. I also plan on using it for my personal interests. Thank you!

2. Is this USA only?

   • I used it in Africa. Worked ok.

   • No, I can confirm you can in Canada as well. Most of our local library systems offer from Lynda.com with a library card. I can't vouch for outside of US and CA.

3. Joel, I used it primarily to learn PhotoShop and some Lightroom. What's cool about the lynda.com courses is that they're broken in to small sections where you can learn just one technique. I also like the fact that all the courses I've taken have written transcripts of what's being said, so it's easy to grab a sentence or paragraph to put into my own notes.

4. I've used this wonderful resource, provided by my public library for some time.

   There is a special login page where I enter my 14-digit library card number and a long, complex password. The normal lynda.com login page wants an email address and password, and the library number is not acceptable as an email address. So be sure to bookmark the special login page.

   There is no way to change a password without calling lynda.com support, so do not lose it.

   Also unfortunately, this system does not work with the iOS lynda.com app. It must be used through a browser.

Many corporations pay for LinkedIn Learning so that their employees can keep up with important soft skills or technical skills, continuing education in a specialty. You can check with your HR department if they offer this perk.

GettyIf you wonder if those soft skills are really valuable, the third annual 2019 Workplace Learning Report found some of the country’s fastest growing roles—sales development, customer success, and customer experience jobs—are largely soft skills-based. The most in-demand skill is Creativity, followed by Persuasion, Analytical reasoning, Collaboration, and, Flexible approach (a.k.a. Adaptability). If you thought all those soft skills were not needed in the workplace, think again. The online learning platform has all of these courses.

First step
: Search your library system name and Lynda.com in any search engine and you should find details. Sample query: “Oakland public library Lynda.com” and the first result is the announcement from the main library page with appropriate links to sign up (presuming you live in that district, of course).

I went through a simple signup process at my county library to get an account and login. I have to make sure I login via that library-established account or the Lynda/LinkedIn system gets confused and tries to offer me a trial, so simply bookmark your access page.
