Anyone who has a library and a garden wants for nothing. ~Cicero~

"Free" Books

You can read my books—or any book—for free. Simply print out this form and give it to your local public library. If the library doesn't own a copy, they can use this information to order it, and they'll notify you when it's available. All it takes is a library card. In general, you only need to know the book's title, author and year of publication.

You can also fill out a Patron Request form online. Sometimes these are called Suggestion for Purchase forms. Here are some sample forms:

Your particular library system probably has a link to one on their site.

"Book lovers will understand me, and they will know too, that part of the pleasure of a library lies in its very existence." ~ Jan Morris ~
