I to also found my copy of The Hobbit in a library. I had just finished reading the Last Battle by C.S.Lewis and asked the librarian whether there were anymore in the Narnia series. She pulled out my card and to my horror told me I had read them all, seeing my distress she asked me if I had read The Hobbit, I told her I hadn't and she went and got me a copy. I now own 49 seperate copies (one in German) of this marvellous book, 52 copies of The Lord of the Rings, and over 200 other books of/on Tolkien, all because of a wet afternoon in Dec 1969.
