"A library in Ankara gives new meaning to the notion that books are timeless.
Garbage collectors in the Turkish capital have opened a public library comprised entirely of books once destined for the landfills."

I know that the closing libraries in the USA do sell those library books at a very nice discount. What we paid 100 dollars for a book my cost you 1 dollar, the only problem is finding the right ones, that you are looking for or the need ones for our kids. Sometimes they sell library books that are over 50 years old, KEPT IN BOXES IN STORAGE, OLD EDITIOMS at a very cheap price and are collectibles items that could be auction OR SOLD for A GOOD AMOUNT!

i LL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE; OLD COOK books, THE RECIPE IS THE ORIGINAL, BUT DUE TO THE AGE OF THE RECIPE AND TIMES CHANGE FOR THE RECIPE IT HAS BEEN OR MODIFIED WITH NEW INGREDIENTS AND new TECHNIQUES..

another example: I personally paid for a used cook book 15 dollars because it was publish in 1989, the original value was 75 dollars.it had all the recipes available of all type of vinagers and has list of 150 recipes, all documented. from sugar cane to apple ciders with honey. Guess what?, because of this book I did got the idea from this old book, what I do sell? hot chiles,Tabasco sauce, cook and farm and brew at home. I sold out about 350 dollars in the winter only to dedicated customers. Is good money in the winter. I only do this as a hobby.

Today, it was an educational cooking class in cooking spring rolls with my wife and after researching the closes Asian recipe in the books I concluded depending the region of the world every one is different.

Here is the recipe on spring rolls that I got from my wife.

Spring rolls is not the same as Chinese rolls. They are called shanghai rolls.

Recipe for 14 sprig rolls cook at home.
2 chicken breast boil and chopped thinly in soy sauce before mixing with veggies, drain the soy source before wrapping the rest of veggie contents.
3 onion leaks chopped thinly.
cilantro you could add.
3 long bean sprouts chopped fine.
2 carrots chopped thinly
3 square tofu cooped thinly.
the roll of wrapper has to be white or brown large size, depending on the amount your are serving.
once you have chopped all the vegetable equally you start your wrapper rolling individually with the contents.

you could bake it at 350 degrees, it will take more time, or deep fry with olive oil, if you deep fry them, make sure to drain each roll individually.

and your second side menu is your choice...
when you fry them make sure they are cook thoroughly and crispy not burn
enjoy your meal
