[quote=Anonymous]No, libraries are magical. One of the best things about modern society. I know a number of authors who have told me that while of course book sales are paramount (especially presales, if you want to support an author, pre-order their book as it can really drive drive interest and get their book in more stores) they also appreciate library check outs, and have also noted that there is still a benefit to them, as libraries have to pay for books and the cost of a library book is much higher than a normal sale. Also publishers will pay attention to demand in libraries and that can impact interest in publishing future books. Basically, it's all good. Writers want to be read. If I had to purchase every book I read, I'd be broke. I buy maybe one book a month for myself, plus gifts for others, and then get everything else from the library.[/quote]
