Summary: Do you get books from a public library in your town or even a school library? In many remote areas of the world, there are no library buildings. In many countries, books are delivered in an unusual way: by bus, boat, elephant, donkey, train, even by wheelbarrow.

Because, as one librarian in Azerbaijan says, "Books are as important to us as air or water!" (from amazon.com)
