Book Crossing is for the exchange of books, for free, and for tracking the books as they travel the world around.
The plan is to create a bookshelf in the Hackerspace, where people can bring their books & have them marked; or pick up the book from the bookshelf.
There are ways to make this easier or harder. One of the ways involves child labor ;-)
