The Kid Stackz

This piece by Jessica Kane is interesting: she proposes that public libraries create areas in their buildings for childcare. Parents drop off their kids for a couple of hours while they read. The library could charge for the service and help fund their collections with the money they receive from the childcare center. What a (ahem) novel idea!

I would certainly sign up for it -- I never feel like I have enough time to read now that Griffin is here. If I could drop him off at a childcare facility just for the express purpose of reading (as opposed to dropping him off at workout gym-sponsored childcare area), I would certainly feel freed up to do my daily quota of reading...
