"Available at: Your local library What I think: My friend, Jack, called me to talk about my recent blog on swapping paperback books. His wife Joan devours romance novels and has hundreds, if not thousands of them (mostly paperbacks) stacked in the garage.  While we were talking I asked Jack, also an avid reader, mostly of non-fiction, that if the only books stored in the garage were Joan&amp;#039;s, what he does with books after he&amp;#039;s read them. His answer: &amp;quot;I take them back to the library, of course!&amp;quot; He proceeded to chide me about how I&amp;#039;ve missed blogging about one of the greatest deals around: Free rental of books and of DVD&amp;#039;s from the local library. He&amp;#039;s right!  And to make &amp;quot;free&amp;quot; even more convenient, you can check your local library website to see if a particular book or DVD you&amp;#039;re interested in is available. P.S. Just heard this morning that sales of romance novels are up something like 30% over last year - so if you&amp;#039;re still in the buying, rather than borrowing, mode remember that swapping can save you lots of money.
