So a week or two ago I had the brilliant idea of printing out my Amazon wish list and bringing it to the library. I use my Amazon list partially as a collection spot for books I'd like to read at some point but can't afford at the moment, so it worked like a charm. I found about half of the ones on there (the other half being obscure out of print books Neil Gaiman mentioned on his blog at some point), and I'm almost done with a biography of John Brown now. Good stuff. I'll have to do that again (or, as a librarian friend recommended, go to the library web site first and ask them to hold the books before I go).

I am fortunate in that Western Mass has a pretty good online library system, so when I run across a mention of a book I think I'd like I can just go right to their website and request that they send it from wherever to the branch library down the block from our house.

I am slightly spoiled.
