[kwlug disc.] a bunch of books i'm willing to *loan* to the LUG

[Richard Weait]

Library stuff.

Firstly, I thank all of the donors to the KWLUG library.  It's great
to have so many Linux related books at hand.  For those who are new to
this list, Rob (who started this thread) is the donor of the vast
majority of the books in our collection.  Thank you again Rob.

I think that partitioning the KWLUG books into those in the collection
and those that are still privately held is a bad idea.  Those who wish
to loan their books should make arrangements for that outside the LUG.
 Perhaps even through this list.  But dropping the burden of tracking
and returning your (generously offered) books onto somebody else is
unfair in my view.

Secondly, some folks who wish to publish their book collections are
using librarything.com.  Smaller collections are free as I understand
it and a modest fee gives you an unlimited account.  Librarything
allows reviews etc.  LUG members interested in publicizing their books
could even link to their librarything account from their email .sig,
and / or blog sig for the convenience of other members.
