Patrons come ] and go, but there is very little opportunity to establish ] relationships with people or groups of people. In fact, ] if you try to talk with someone holding a book you like - ] you'll probably get shushed. The Distributed Library ] Project works in exactly the opposite way, where the very ] function of the library depends on interaction."
