Joseph, in the UK there’s what’s called the Public Lending Right, which provides for annual payments to writers and other creators whose works are freely available in libraries. Could be what you had in mind…

Linh–Re typing on French keyboards, you have to ask them if they have a “clavier anglais”–a lot of those net places have them…esp. in the more touristy areas. Daisy

I don’t know if it’s still so, but I remember reading back in the ’70s that Swedish libraries paid a small royalty to the author every time a book was checked out. Payments actually were funneled through the Swedish writers guild, as I recall. Did I dream this, or was it some commentary Robert Bly wrote in connection with Tomas Tranströmer?

Dear Linh:
What a wonderful beginning: please share with us more about your forays into small press publishing, where poetry is concerned. It’s an area I’m immensely interested in, and completely converted to.
Thanks,
Francisco
