      So people were buying books and not reading them almost 100 years ago. I assumed that was a newish thing related to social media destroying attention spans.

    2. Cool! I once requested access to a rare book in a university library that ended up having uncut pages as well. It was different than this, though. The pages had been folded into quarters, so there were folds that needed to be cut at the top of the pages as well. They cut them for me and I got to be the first one to read it, which was pretty coooooo.
