"We’re creators by permission, by grace as it were. No one creates alone, of and by himself. An artist is an instrument
that registers something already existent, something which belongs to the whole world,
and which, if he is an artist, he is compelled to give back to the world."

-Henry Miller, Sexus

How do I get to the Library? Well, most people drive, some people drive large vehicles, others drive small. We like the people who take along three or more people in each car. Our favorite people are the ones who take the bus! That's why we're offering a whoopin' 25% discount on all book purchases in our bookstore for anyone with a proof of having come down the coast by bus. Public transportation is a matter of politics here in the West and we'd like to show where we hope the money will be spent. We also think you'd enjoy the ride. Bus schedule here! Click on "Big Sur Service"

(The Library is only ten minutes walk past the end station at Nepenthe)
