The author reflects on the lessons he learned from his failed effort to share an electronic copy of his own book to other people. Topics discussed include his assumption that retaining copyright in his work covers the right to share his book to those in need, implication of the impossibility of transmitting books between libraries, and the importance of the systems of inter-relationship to scholarship and libraries.
