what an impressive alternate use of books.
what ever became of the whistle-blower that declared that the library leadership was denuding the shelves, essentially selling off the (non-electronic) collection? and/or how is the relationship between the Friends of the Library book sales as regards deals done with a third party book buyer?

I was kind of preparing to be annoyed at how there's now a world record for every single little action and event one can perform, no matter how ridiculous, or the extent to which it's nothing more than a perfunctory attention grab. But then that was pretty badass. Can't believe it was only 2,100 -- seemed like way more.

i feel a little sorry for the kids that had to pose and not look at the awesomeness surrounding them.

The continuous soft slapping sound the books make as they fall is oddly and deeply satisfying to me. So is the cheering at the end.

Fun fact: The entire trail was in Dewey Decimal order.

Would not want to do the reshelving. But that was cool!

I love how the domino chain can "fall" uphill, from the floor up onto the top of the bookshelf.
