I know the public library exists, and whenever possible, I use it. But,
I have found they they have a dismal selection of technical books, hence
the previous message. If the library had such a great selection, why
would anyone buy books in the first place?
Also, this system would allow for book reviews, similar to amazon.com,
and would keep a nice, updated list of books, both learning and
reference. I feel that that it could be worth a monthly fee to be able
to "check-out" a good, quality book on a language I am only going to use
for side-projects, or something I am personally interested in.
