Ordered The Bitcoin Standard from my local library. Keeping that money to stack sats 😉
Libby and Hoopla are great for checking out audiobooks for free.
reply
Yea I used Libby in the past. Pretty good but audiobooks aren't my jam so much. Id rather get sats from podcasts if I'm listening to something.
reply
You can also use Libby for ebooks but I prefer physical personally.

How do you order a book "for a library"? I would love to do the same!
reply
Most library websites allow you to request books for pickup. They'll do the work of finding it for you, and put it in a designated area for pickup.
If they don't have the book, you can donate a copy or request that they buy it.
I think @jimmysong donated a bunch of copies of Programming Bitcoin to the Austin Library because they have like 5. It might just also be that frequently requested ... when I was looking for a copy they were all checked out.
reply
For the record, I did not donate any copies to any libraries. I didn't even know they were available there!

Yea my library network allows people to request books for them to buy. I the post above I just meant I put in an order for pickup. The Boston area library network already has like a dozen Bitcoin Standard books circulating apparently!
