Hey, we have our first library sponsor and Beyonds will soon be placed on the shelves in Pond Inlet, Nunavut. Get a few folks together or sponsor one yourself. And if you know of a library that would want some Beyonds, let us know. Library number two coming right up.
Welcome to Pond Inlet, Nunavut and the Rebecca P. Idlout Library which provides resources and programs to this community on Baffin Island in Canada's far north. We're looking for someone to send Beyonds to this pretty little library at the top of the world. Sign up to send Beyond to a library here.
(Introduction to Library Joy.)
We love libraries. What an idea! We imagine along with Borges that "paradise must be some kind of library."
We'd like to share Beyond with more people, and libraries are sharing kinds of places. By sending Beyond to libraries, we limit our use of trees and ink (see The Myth of Bookstores) and make each copy go further. Plus, since a no-ads magazine is more expensive to produce than most magazines (see How to Make a Magazine: Real Costs), people who might not be able to afford Beyond can enjoy us too.
"Library Joy" is our way of putting Beyond into libraries of all kinds.You can help us make library joy by connecting us with a library. Or you can donate a Beyond subscription to the library joy program and we'll match you with one of the libraries on our list. We'll be highlighting the libraries we circulate into right here at the blog and hope to have Beyond floating around communities of all kinds in the weeks to come.
So c'mon, nominate a library. Donate to a library. Jump for Library Joy. And circulate the goodness!
