It's something I've been doing since I was a kid. When I see a good book that's just asking to be read, I just have to take it.
Are you actually an underage German girl?
how do you steal them?
>>7815994
Nah, 19 year old high school kid.
>>7815991
Where do you steal them from and what is your method?
>>7815996
Well when I go into a library I look for all the cameras. But sometimes that doesn't even matter because no one steals books. Then I just stroll on over to the classics section (because those are really the only ones worth stealing) and pick up a good book. Either walk straight out with it if there are no beepers (or whatever they are) or put into my backpack.
steal better editions?
>>7816001
There's 5 libraries I have to choose from in my area so If one doesn't have what I'm looking for I just go to another.

Nice. It never occurred to me to steal from libraries before, I usually steal from a store. Now that I think about it libraries would be much easier, I might just try this out soon!
>>7816008
Everyman's Library is my favorite. Just the way the books are designed make them highly delectable.
>>7815958
what your parents would say if they knew?
>>7816012
I steal a shit ton of books, but never from libraries. I've stolen around 200 books from different bookstores, and when I used to work in one about 800 more on a two year period. Get on my level faggot
>>7816022
Ever been caught? What would you do if you were caught?
>>7816025
They've seen the books before and asked about them because I have books from the many different libraries I've been to over time. I just tell them they were give aways that the library had. Though it's only a matter of time till I'm off to UC Berkeley (got scholarships mang) and they're going to have to send my books. I'm still thinking about what I'm going to say...
>>7816022
Do you ever steal more than one book at a time? What's the most you've ever stolen at once?
>>7816015
He already said that he's a nigger
>>7815980
kek
>>7816039
Never been caught. Just that easy to steal from a library. If I ever am though I'll pay my debt to society. I'll be held responsible. Just like my nigga Raskolnikov. (Don't ask me about it, I still haven't finished Crime and Punishment
>>7816042
The most I've stolen at once was 18. I went to the checkout and acted like I did a self checkout. Walked right past the librarian.
>>7816019
>It never occurred to me to steal from libraries before
People that steal books are retarded, who would have guessed? I suppose you probably need them more than most then
At least you've got good tatste
>>7816093
He's just stealing pretty editions of classics and never reading them
>stealing something free

>>7815958
>My favorite author is Fyodor Dostoevsky

>>7815958

If the book is available at your library, why the fuck would you steal it?
I'd understand if you went to bookstores and stole stuff you cant afford and is not available at the library.
>>7815958
Fuck you
Are you happy knowing Fyodor isnt getting paid for his work?
>>7816144
*Chain bookstores

Paying people to translate works costs money, you better hope rightsholders to quality lit can make money selling books if you don't want to learn Russian and French and German and Greece and Latin and...
>>7816111
Nescio. Omnes Legit bene sunt.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (still have it)
Just books.
>>7816113
Great moves.
>>7816144
I like to get to books on my own time. I also want to build my collection. In short I'm a bibliophile
>>7816183
kek
>>7816212
I do have a few works in Latin. The Iliad and Odyssey and also Dante's Inferno. (I know it was originally in Italian which I've been looking for.)
Although I don't have them with me atm
Latin is my second launguage
Do you at least actually read the books you steal? How big is your stolen backlog?
>>7815958
On the one hand, that's two copies of Pevear & Volokhonsky that didn't get sold.
On the other hand, that bookstore ordered a whole other crate of them after the reduction in inventory, so I think they may have gotten more money after all.
At least Karenina is by the good married Russian translators, the Maudes.
>>7815958
I hate you, scum.
>>7815958
>My favorite author is Fyodor Dostoevsky
Then how come you only read translations of his work?
Shitty ones at that
>>7816022
I'm getting that particular Dante sent to me atm, anybody have any thoughts on it?
>>7816012
Method? I've been thinking about doing it but dont know how to go about it.
>>7815958
Do you atleast scan them and upload to the internet later? If you're going to start the fire, atleast make it rise too.
6.95in cock reporting in. I steal books using the internet
>>7815958
i hope you get caught
>Stealing from libraries
Why not just borrow the fucking book? Are you even reading them?
>>7815991
>mein kampf
ebin, simply ebin.
>>7816524
Yeah, this is basically an edgelord's bookshelf thread and he won't even show us his bookshelves.
>>7816444
also BWC, black chicks always think it's gonna be small but the look on their face when i stretch them out is priceless
>>7816385
He just wants the attention, he didn't actually read them.
>>7816012
Are you serious? Who the fuck steals from a library just fucking check it out and read it holy hell, if you don't like the book enough to buy it then you probably won't read it more than once anyway.
Absolutely disgusting thread.
Yet intriguing.
I wished books were cheaper.
>>7815969
>black
Can you at least read the books you steal, nigger?
>>7817085
Go tell each other about your dicks somewhere else. This isn't Grindr.
>>7815991

Oy Vey!
Will you steal my virginity next please, it's a very long book so it will be quite the heist
>>7815958
We get it, you're a Bernie Sanders supporter.

How many of these do you think OP has actually read?

Fuck those P&V in there . Are the rest in OP's pic worth buying?
14 years old: the thread
>>7815958
How do you do it without tripping alarms? Do you like target only small independent bookstores with low security, or do you go for the big chain bookstores?
>>7818092
>implying he has taxable income or assets
lmao
>>7818094
>bookstore alarms
>functional
Only big books with those coded stickers in them set off alarms.
>>7816216
>In short I'm a bibliophile
A bibliophile would have some respect for libraries and learning.
You're just a trash cunt.
Do you ever get any visitors OP? What will you tell them when they will go through your bookshelf full of unread books?
You're telling yourself that you'll read all of that someday, that you have all the knowledge of the world in that small appartment of yours. In reality the only time when you can really concentrate on reading is on your commute. Your books will outlive you without being read once.
>>7819704
I've read thousands of books and also burn them. Where's that place me?
>>7815958
nah
>>7819948
Below those who view magazines as literature.
>>7819952
Well now I know you're full of it. I can do advanced exegesis of the Bible, Tolstoy, Joyce, hell, even Gene Wolfe. I just derive pleasure from burning books because it vexes the so-called bibliophiles who can't accept that the whole world, solitude included, is vanity.
>>7819930
A library full of read books isn't very useful is it?
>>7819990
But that doesn't grant one the right to destroy the written word. Give it to the homeless for christ's sake, use it to fix a wobbly table, I don't know! But don't just burn that shit!
stealing brand new books from big chain bookstores is way more /fa/
>>7820012
Err, I'm the book burner and not OP. Don't give him any shit for my idiocy.
>>7815969
>half-white, half-black
>reads books, but steals them first
>>7819990
A library, unlike a store, is a sacred place. There's nothing bad in the act of stealing, as long you steal from the ones who don't appreaciate what they have.
Also, since you've evaded my initial post, you don't object to any of my assumptions about you? That you derrive more pleasure in rearraing your books instead of reading them
>>7820037
>>7820038
>sacred place
>>7820038
Not OP, but,
Your assumptions are shitposting and you should feel bad.
>>7815969
return the books you halfnigger shitblood
>>7820075
You hold no power here.
Seriously though. why you be stealin', OP?
>>7815958
>i stole 8 books over the course of a month from a local bookstore staffed by bored teenagers
>ama
>>7816225
>The Iliad and Odyssey
>in Latin
wtf? only grills had those back when they were a thing. which old lady did you steal a hundred year old school book off?
>>7816225
>Iliad, Odyssey, and Inferno in latin
what the fuck? do you also have a latin edition of gravity's rainbow? romeo and juliet? the tale of genji?
>>7815958
What's it like to have no morals or dignity?
>>7815958
Do you only steal books? Is there a principle behind this?
I stole like 6 books from the library today but i tries taking that plastic film off to take off the library stickers but all of the covers ripped :(
>>7820017
how to do this
>>7820230
Whadda scrub.
I stole a 1970's copy of The Fellowship Of The Ring because I was 12 years old and thought it would be worth a bunch of money
>stealing books from libraries
>stealing things that are literally free to access
>mfw I'm supposed to be impressed
I have a small dick and my town doesn't even have a library.
>>7815958
i'm sorry man, but this is autism.
>>7815958
I stole a three-volume book from a library. I plan on sending them back, after years of keeping them.
I once stole a copy of 'the Kite Runner' at a flea market which was held to raise money for refugees.
>>7815958
would you prefere to steal money and then buy books or you just go sraight for the books, also i'm a poorfag, teach me some tips and tricks to steal books myself.
Another book thief here. I prefer to take from the university libraries instead of the public libraries, but public is definitely easier to get away with. I mostly steal books that I know I will return to for reference or enjoyment. I donate the ones I decide against keeping.
I steal my clothes as well. It's about 50/50 neccessity / impulse
>>7815958
>reads Genet once
why steal from a library? you can go read these books any time you want
i stole my copy of vurt by jeff noon from an art exhibit at the tate modern
it was tied to a metal bed so i tore off the corner of the cover with the wire through so i could take it with me
Why not just torrent them
