lending book library of bike books in your shop?
by veganboyjosh＠gmail.com 07 Mar '10

Hey Everyone, I hope the slow traffic on the list of late is a factor of everyone getting some good back-end planning time. In the past few years, we've collected a decent stack of bicycle repair and other type of bike books (things like Lance Armstrong's book, or local mountain bike trail guidebooks, etc). We'd like to do something productive with these, and it occurred to me that we could lend them out to members. Does anyone else have something similar? What do you all do with the books that are donated? Thanks. Hope you're warm out there! josh.
