I suppose they don't have real libraries in VT, do they? So you can't even request new books...

I can request some. I think the regular library (not the college one) has a pretty extensive intralibrary loan service. I haven't been there in years, though...sad, I know!

But I can always go trade in some books again at the bookstore if I get desperate. ;-) That does of course depend on the whim of the shop owner, but sometimes he gives me a pretty penny for what I bring in! Enough to pick up a goodly number of new (to me) books, in any case!

Hey! We need to start "NetBooks." Just like "Netflix" but for books!
