I’m dancing-on-photons happy to reveal the cover by Rita Fei for my upcoming solarpunk novel, Murder in the Tool Library. You can pre-order it on this site as well as on some more mainstream ones. The paperbook will be available on Barnes and Noble closer to the release date on Dec 8th.
Looks great! What does Murder in the Tool Library mean?
A tool library is part of an expanded library of things in a library economy.
Sometimes also called, more broadly, a lending library.
Are there non-lending libraries? I thought we called those “museums” or “stores”.
I also think of public libraries when I hear library; but technically yes. There are libraries where you can go read the material but not lend it out.
That’s a good point! I suppose a makerspace might be an example of a non-lending tool library (like, you have to go there to use the tools) though I’m sure some do lend stuff out as well
True! I forgot that reference libraries are a thing.
