I just noticed a book swapping topic in another group. I know some of you say it takes four weeks or even longer to get your books, so I was wondering if it wouldn't be easier and faster for some of you to borrow or take them from members who have doubles OR offer to pay somebody at cost for buying a copy to ship to you? I know Borders (forgive me for resorting to chains immediately) will let you ship directly from the store, too. I guess you could also offer to swap different titles instead of giving the person money.
Unfortunately, the library is the only free option, and I can't do anything about how slow that is for Kate (and others?). The nice thing about this is, though, if you don't want to keep your copy when you're done, you could donate it to your library so that the next person interested in it will be able to read it for free.

Let me know what you think.
