We Need a Library Economy
We Need a Library Economy
Thought this was pretty interesting and entertaining. Made me dream for a while about what living in a society with a mature library economy would be like. Figured I'd share and try to get a discussion going. Enjoy!

We need to actually do it! Anyone could start one. Someone in the no-buy community, or an actual librarian, would be the best choice.
As a librarian who has done some of the exploratory research into starting a local asset-sharing collective, LendEngine is useful, intuitive, and pretty cheap. I have not found anything FOSS that does the equivalent, but any programmers that want to help the movement, have at it.
That sounds like a great project to work on, I’ll look into it.
