Great idea Bruce, similar to how campgrounds do it. I'll chat with Richie and the other Orvis shops and see what kind of network can be set up. Alternatively, we could set up a book swap table at every BEER TIE and members could drop off titles and pick up others as they see fit. Would have to be run on the "honour system" of course. Let me think on it!

--Dan,Is it possible that we might develop a TPFR lending library. I have a number of books I don't think I will read again (mostly trout/cold water) and would be interested in lending them. I actually saw several of the titles in a "junk" shop north of Richmond on Rt.1 shortly back and they were not priced very high so I don't think the books appreciate in value. Most were collected before the web and it's plethora of good information. If you can come up with a way to have a lending box in the back of your store maybe they could go and come on an honor system. Mine are fairly old and probably out of print. These may not compete with what you have on the wall in the store. If not your place then maybe Urban Angler. My ulterior motive is that if I empty some basement shelf space of anything fishing related then I can ask my wife to do away with some cook books (Southern Living). Both subjects have valuable timeless info that hasn't seen a reading lamp in years. Just a thought...............
