Books to Go

I love this idea, described in The Great Ideas Newsletter of Oct 06, 2004.
There's another huge market for this business - disabled folks. This includes those temporarily home-bound, whether sick or injured.
I injured my neck a few years ago and while I did get to the library on occasion, I almost always got the books returned late - I'd have loved this service.
Advertise to these folks at: Dr. and Medical offices, physical therapy clinics, pharmacies, hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, nursing homes, etc. Also with any local transportation service that serves this group.
Taking it a step further, I'd love to have all the books come to me - like a bookmobile. Except it's a bookmobile that comes when I want it, where I want it. This would require a van, but I'd pay more to be able to physically look through the books.
Back to the newsletter - my brain is racing with the many niche possibilities. And with some segments, like personal growth, you could charge more. And/or, expand to include non-fiction videos/dvds and cds...
Great Idea guys!
