## Library

I have a few physical books I'm open to lend out to people who I can trust to take care of them. Therefore, in a theoretical sense, I'm operating a library. If you're interested in borrowing one of the books below, contact me.

In order to not end up in a situation in which I need to add a page such as the [Did you borrow a video from me?](https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/news03.html#videos) on [Donald Knuths](https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth) website, the current location of each book is noted here and you can also be added here (if wished, anonymously with a lookup table only I have access to) upon borrowing a book. 

I do prefer the books to be in the format 17.78cm x "thickness" x 23.5 cm, yet others are welcom as well.
