    Nanie likes reading very much. He wanted to share his love of reading with his community, so he decided to turn his home into a library. At first, his family objected. But he talked with them and finally they agreed to support him. 

    His library began in 2000, with a collection of around 100 of his own books. He simply put the books outside his front door to see whether people wanted to borrow them. As a result, people borrowed and returned them. Surprisingly, they also began to give away other books to the collection. Some young men even helped to clean up the library and the books. 

    Today the library has grown to two million books. Known as the Reading Club 2000, the library is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. People find the library does not have member cards and no identification (认证) is needed when they want to take a book. There's also no limit (限制) on the number of books, when or whether they're returned.

    Nanie encourages the sharing of books and believes that people can do things better by reading different books. Those who have no enough money to buy books are very excited because they can read as many books as possible. More and more people are interested in this library and they have learned a lot from the books. Nanie knows that, so he will never stop.
