Here's another reason I read h-costume and find it invaluable. Often times other members mention books that sound delicious. If the book is hard to find or really expensive, I go to the on-line catalogue of the public library to see if it's there. After I've actually looked at the book in person sometimes I feel I have to own it. Then I steal it from the library. NO! Just kidding of course! Then I go to the usual book-buying sources. Right now I've just reserved Toile de Jouy because it was mentioned in the last h-costume digest.
And here's a plea for public libraries - they're always short of funds. A yearly donation is tax-deductible. With your contribution they can go out and buy more books - and keep the lights on.
