Advertising works. Brilliant
DYK, off topic, I had over $1000 in reflective vinyl lettering on my DJ van, everything you could afford to be seen, and two things worked best. I always put a different *Teddy bear or stuffed toy* on the front grill above the front plate with my DJ business name, website and phone. Kids see the bear, point and draw attention and I get the rewards.
At night, when i went to the club, I could have parked closest the door, I was like Staff, but I parked on a hard-to-access rocky spot near the stop sign. Incoming traffic faced my side, and traffic coming to the stop came from my rear. My friend, a band frontman, said why do you park way over there, I can get you up here? I said, WATCH? Every car that comes to a stop (or not) is nearly blinded by the reflective lettering. They all know my van. My DJ business got talked about and I exceeded the business of those who brought me into it. Advertising works.

@ralen in a repressive regime, of which we have many today:
- make a list of all people who checked out LGBTQIA or queer themed books and imprison them
- inform parents or police of any children reading such books
- arrest any people reading feminist or leftist literature and send them to a concentration camp
- send a list of anybody who read a non-native language book to ICE to kidnap, imprison, or deport
- ditto for many other areas

well from my perspective that looks like an overly elaborated trap. here in russia we just don't have such books in our libraries, if it's banned - you can't find it, that's all🤔 if there are books your government doesn't want you to read, it's easier for them to make sure you can't find them legally by removing them from libraries and bookstores, rather than catching everyone who buys them or takes in libraries
allowing such books to be accessible in libraries to then punish everyone who accesses them doesnt make any sense to me

I wonder how much the authors of the books got from that
@vegai Less than musicians do, when their music gets used
Yeah, good comparison. Music and books are very different though, so it makes sense if a single play of a song nets you less.
Would be interesting to know how much less it is.
@vegai
Here's something that always bothered me. Libraries pay for their materials, I've been told higher amounts because of Loans.
I was a DJ. I don't know your laws, but here's the general gist.
You buy music, everyone makes money from the CD but the artist gets the least. I own my music, but unrecognized DJ licensing companies say if you pay them a fee (that doesn't support the artist) you can violate copyrite and buy a license for each hard drive of music you give other DJs to use. No money for the artists, and each DJ thinks they are legally licensed? They are not

@vegai do you also wonder how much they get from books they sold?
That aside, there are licenses, the monetary side is dealt with. Don't worry.
I'd worry more about what corporations do to avoid paying writers more.
@vegai libraries buy/license all the books they lend, and publishers gouge them. Whether authors see a decent portion of those fees or not, is an entirely different question. Also, libraries lend more that books (musical instruments, sports equipment, toys, wifi hotspots, recording equipment, music, tv, movies, museum passes etc.). Letting people know what they get for their small investment of tax $ is a great idea. More public orgs should do this. @Rasta
well and plus many don’t read even the free ones.
Only applies if comparing to KU or KoboPlus subscription borrows etc as you don't get to keep the items.
@raymaccarthy
Books around here are $20. If I read 5 at the library free, that's $100 saved. No one wants to be *tracked* but the value is saved

It's not anything saved unless you are renting the books.
I like libraries and ours is free. So a huge saving compared to an Amazon or Kobo subscription.
I'd rather the library not track the books I check out
How does the library know how much it cost the person to travel to and from the library each time? 
@lydiaconwell They don't calculate that. You borrow a book that sells for $29, you just saved 29. that's the premise
you borrow a pair of skates or a musical instrument that costs $100s or more, or you use a library’s recording studio or VR equipment, you save $1000s. @lydiaconwell
@LynnD @lydiaconwell
Do they loan those at the library?
I know they have movies, audiobooks, and books, newspapers and magazines.

funny that people found a way to make this negative. 🤷
This would be far more interesting if they were films & not books. Once a pirate, always a pirate. At least this is supposedly the more "ethical" route. 
Anyway, I support the usage of libraries in general.
@kimlockhartga Our library does that too
Yeah!! This receipt was probably printed from BlueCloud Circulation - by default it calculates and prints that message.
I really like it, but my director had us turn it off because he felt like it didn’t accurately reflect the cost savings given that libraries don’t let you keep the books and it’s pulling prices from new copies.
"where's your Ferrari!" (c)
When I helped my parents move, I took my Dad to drop off their books for the last time, all the staff lined up to say goodbye and the librarian told them they had saved over $43,000 over the years.
I found it hard to believe because they still had shelves and shelves full of books.
I pay an average of $20 per CD in my collection. Some CDs I can't find, for that one SHOW. The library had it, so I just borrowed it for the show (that's not completely legal BTW, it's not personal if you use it for business and is not protected by the law)
My library does that too.
Our library system also does this.
I believe they keep a running total of average pieces, not sunning up past lendings.
Where are are were fighting a regional govt pushing restrictions and censorship to our libraries. First to the publicly funded school libraries but now to the public libraries. Their wedge issue is "graphic" content, conspicuously in LGBTQA++ young adult and adult graphic novels.
The Conservative party in power here has cherry picked specific pages, out of context, lied and claimed they were freely available to grades K though 6. They've lied about the level and number of concerns (truth coming out though freedom of information requests, eventually. 6, six emails two or three from the same person. None from first hand concerns, all hearsay)
They promised that it was only in schools, only elementary schools. Then they said all schools. They had to remove books & report all their inventory. Now public libraries are to put the targeted items behind the counter, by request only. /1

He/she has an IQ lower than the genitalia on a mite, and isn’t attractive in any way.
it's amazing how some people think that a connection to power makes them exempt from repercussions. Oh well
She figures that since she's a tRumpublican and that she supports tRump. That she'll be accepted by them.

Just over a month ago I was called to have a Lung Cancer Screening, as I am an ex-smoker!
On Monday I received a letter to say that as part of the scan they had noticed 'a degree of hardening of the arteries', they stressed that this doesn't mean I have heart disease, just that I am at greater risk.
For this I thank them
However the letter didn't say anything about Lung Cancer, which was the purpose of the screening!
Today I received a second letter from them, printed same day as the first (thanks Royal Mail), which gives the Lung Cancer Screening result and I need to get another scan in about 3 months as it doesn't need immediate follow-up or further investigation! The letter a;so mentions the hardening of the arteries and gives the same advice as the first letter.
At least it isn't an immediate rescan etc.

which I can totally understand…
Your grandfather and his fellows were heroes. They paid a heavy price for their good work, especially in the days before PTSD and moral injury were recognized, but I hope they understood how many lives they were able to save and the truth they uncovered in that horrible place.
I live in Ahlem, Hanover. One of my dog walking routes includes both the site of the Ahlem satellite camp (a forced labour camp and now a memorial site), and the British forces graveyard. Ahlem also has another holocaust memorial site, the Gartenbaumschule.
Within the last couple of years we’ve seen these sites vandalised by AfD supporting Neo-Nazis. This filled me with despair.
Thankfully, the response was clear: massive protest marches.
That gave me hope.

Never forget…
German culture, that brought about Goethe, Schiller, Bach, Beethoven, Kant and Marx also committed the largest genocide ever recorded…
Incomprehensible.

didn't know my mom's dad well, but she said he was never the same after Dachau
and now Israeli soldiers are going door to door to arrest people if they’re “hiding Palestinians”.
Same. My grandfather was a captain of an anti-tank unit that came across Belsen. He did tell me a little before he died. They could smell it miles before they saw it. The bastards running it had all fled.
By the time they got there, it was populated only by people that famine had turned into rake thin scarecrows and corpses. That's about as far as he got, description-wise.
My parents took me there when I was 13. I’ll never forget it.
Trump seems to be heading in the same direction.
"2025 was ICE’s deadliest year in two decades. Here are the 32 people who died in custody"
"The deaths came as the Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement, detaining a record number of people"
"Some of those who died in detention had arrived in the US recently, seeking asylum. Others had arrived years ago, some as young children."

in reply to Monir Khan • • •But what are the consequences of such appeals? Who is meant to take them to heart, and how should they act? Why this is necessary is merely a rhetorical question; Pandora’s box has been opened – where will there be a refuge for human thought and action? Where?
