I love to read and will miss access to books as well. With the amount of people who want access to books, I was wondering if interested people could start a "village" library.
When books were so expensive that a person may only afford one or two, people in villages would start a private library with dues going to the purchase of new books. (They mainly purchased encyclopedias.) With enough people paying 10 or 15 USD per month plus adding whatever books they have, we could quickly build up a good selection. (Don't know where they would be stored, but it's an idea.)
We will be bringing a good sized library with us also...well over a couple hundred to start with.
