The source I used also had the Library of Congress and Harvard 1 & 2, but I wanted to play fair and left the academic libraries off the map. Can we at least agree that the 2,000,000 number was wrong, and give me a technical win? I can't think of a good way to reconcile the sources. I'm not disposed to want to count them myself.

Here's some library trivia while we are on the subject:

The St. Phillips Church Parsonage Provincial Library, established in 1698 in Charleston, South Carolina, was the first public lending library in the American Colonies.

I'll concede . . . THIS TIME. But in the future let's remember that ,"life is not fair . . . especially when it comes to nitpicking." You can quote me.
