Keeping ideas in the open

I have tons of books in my house. I keep them around in physical form because I’ve always been in love with the idea of having a personal library with thousands of books. My kids pick these books up and read them. My library includes books on theology, picture books, fiction, art, business, and so on. I’m sure that my kids have read books they wouldn’t normally read simply because they are sitting on my shelves. They are out and available.
