    I'm quite protective of my library.  That being said, if you want to check out (loan, borrow, etc.) a book of mine, you must be within 100 miles of my work (San Carlos, CA), have over 200 postings and even then, I still retain the right to decline the request ;)

    When ever possiable, buy your books locally at your LFS or LBS (not Borders ;D ).  If they don't have it, check out Sea Challengers ( www.seachallengers.com) or one of our sponsers (  ;) ).  If that fails, Champion Lighting ( www.championglighting.com ) has a large selection.  Last resort should be Ebay IMO.
