That's the ANA librarian talking about Chinese currency (currency of the Far East) by Fredrik Schjoth. For a couple of bucks two-way media mail postage I'll have six weeks to study a book I haven't been able to find for sale anywhere at what I consider a reasonable price.
I use the ANA library. I feel that it's a great bargain. Right now I have a large box sitting in my office that contains the ANA slide sets for Love Tokens. Havent' had a chance to view them yet. They have a number of videos, slide sets, magazines, auction catalogs, all kinds of interesting and useful stuff.
Allow me to agree. I have often said that literature drives prices and defines markets. Anyone who does not start with literature is behind the curve, paying other people for the books they themselves did not read. As for simple enjoyment of reading, the ANA Library is a bargain. Getting to actually read a book helps me to know which ones I want to buy first and which I can wait a bit for.
I still haven't used the ANA library. I almost did a couple of times but then I went and bought the book. I'm afraid that I'll borrow the book and then get sidetracked until I have 2 days left to return it. Also, for some reason, I have been very lucky. When I come across a book that I think could be very helpful, just as I'm about to borrow it from the ANA library, a really good deal comes along on the book that I can't pass up. It's very strange but I'm not complaining
I am a regular borrower of the ANA library. There is a mountain of knowledge available for the request. The best $33 dollars a year I spend is on my ANA membership. (soon to be $36)
I understand that you can renew for up to five years before the end of Dec and save the additional money.
