Huge thanks to those who came up with quick and useful
responses to my query about libraries 'lending' people. A
neat example of the power of online lists.
I'm struck that the experiment seems to have been regarded
as hugely successful (although I found one US commentator
who decided that 'this Library plan is likely the most
racist and bigotted thing I've heard for a long time' -

tml) - but I've not yet come across a published evaluation
nor any claims to be emulating or developing the idea in the
UK. Anyone?
