[Nolug] FW: [brlug-general]Free Books!

As far as I can tell we don't such a program in our LUG and I would be
interested in setting one up. Do we have such a library? If not, would
anyone be interested in helping set one up?

Good subject line, I know.

As many of you aware, we are members of several LUG programs from
various
publishers, such as O'Reilly, New Riders, and Addison-Wesley. We used to

just grab books, but that policy has stopped. Some of the publishers
would
like to see more LUG reviews of the free books they send, and I don't
see
anything wrong with that.

So, I invite anyone to scan various titles from the publishers and
decide
if there is anything they want. We can typically order one book per
publisher every month or so. Not a bad deal. However, if you choose a
book,
then I will ask that you review the title within one month of receipt.
This
is very fair, and will help ensure the LUG programs continue.

And don't forget, the books stay in the LUG library! :)

Don't forget to take a look at our existing selection, which is actually

pretty nice:
