It is a fact: the editors have banned Electra is the baseline of Free French. One of the main reasons for the absence of the booksellers on the Internet is that, bad decision.
But the reluctance of members of the Board of Directors of the Circle of the library does not erase the cowardice of booksellers. It does not exonerate us nothing.
The main responsibility is ours.
In 1999, in Brest, have gathered at the invitation of the library dialogues, leaders of White Shadows, the beautiful library in Toulouse, Mollat of Bordeaux, La Galerne Havre, Armitière of Rouen, and your servant, therefore, was the first time to discuss the need to create a portal for French bookstore.
Unanimous. Properly. Let's go. Sus.
And also to discuss ways to implement the form.
How? What is that? it costs!
End unanimously. Stampede.
Booksellers are like soldiers of Vercingetorix. Bold before the battle. Everyone wants to take command of the troops. Lead. Make plans. Build a gas plant. Provided that they are the publishers who pay.
Well we are now paying the cost of our inconsistency. And our habits of beggars. Continuously to the trailer editors.
Ten years later there will be a portal to the library. But Gilles De La Porte, who made his pilgrim's staff to gather, is still struggling to convince some people believe that they exist by themselves, and do not know they are earthen pot.
can not haggling for 20,000 euros when it claims to have a place in the Internet and the sale of digital books. This
rule is simple: one who pays orders. We can not have a voice if we do not put hand to pocket. There will be no French portal of the library without significant financial investment booksellers. It is not healthy to expect the bulk of its funding from others, either publishers or the government.
