I am an enthusiastic user of the public library. Also, since I work at an alternative school that doesn’t have its own library, I frequently check out books that I know my students will like. Sometimes, my students like the books a bit too much. In other words, I never see them again.
My local librarians are incredibly understanding. When this happens, they let me replace the book. They don’t even require that I buy a new copy. In fact, THEY recommended half.com. It is so incredibly inexpensive to replace books this way, especially since I select the media mail option, which really isn’t as slow as it’s made out to be.
I’ve bought many other books on half.com, many of which are out of print and unavailable via other venues, online or off. Also, as an added bonus, I’ve learned that you can make money on half.com. More on that another time!
