All you wordsmiths may be interested in this movement taking root in Wisconsin. Actually, the lady featued in the article could be called pawky because she’s a librarian and she’s found a clever new way to get books circulating. http://www.jsonline.com/news/wisconsin/thinking-outside-the-box-with-little-libraries-j43rv4u-137866938.html

Aww, that’s sweet. Sadly, I have left behind books for my Nook Tablet. I can sit in my own home and download new books. I will not be giving up my Nook. A+++

that’s a lovely story! i love that idea! my niece is a librarian. She got her degree last May and when she and her husband were down visiting, she wanted to go tour the Library of Congress, so we did that. it was fascinating. She’d mentioned the philosophical discussions in her Masters program about the ebook v. paper book and how it would affect their field. very interesting.
