Early ebook? "Whole Library In a Nutshell"
Quote:
This latest space trick might work well with earthbound libraries.
Via the website Modern Mechanix, a short mention of the NASA Apollo program's solution for making thousands of documents available to astronauts at the flip of a switch.

Incredible! Thanks for this information. I've included a photo from the link you provided. This information was brought to my attention by Donnageddon.

“How to Write the First 3 Paragraphs of YOUR Indie Novel” - by Max Waxwelp
1) Always write 3 sentences of exposition; 2) now create some dialogue, preferably no more than 2 sentences; and 3) make certain the dialogue is either inane or humorous. Example:
“Bob, I did not know you wore yellow suspenders,” Sally remarked.
“Gee, Sally, those are not suspenders. I am wearing yellow underwear today,” Bob revealed.
The dialogue above will help produce at least 100 more pages of dialogue.

I have used microfiche readers. It is not the most pleasant experience, particularly with a small screen having to mechanically scan around a page. The bright light is not pleasant to read under.
