I can't comment on how they get books and the nonsense that is involved, but at least no one expects you to buy anything and even late fees have been thrown out in favor or people just having access to knowledge. Giving people knowledge for free just because we can. What a concept

Agreed, not to mention they are a public place where you can relax without being pressured to spent money. But since we are in a post about scams it felt relevant to mention.
