Totally this I read an absolute ton (and more even if you count audio books, which I do) and the vast majority is from the library. Even easier now with ebooks and apps. I've still got a pretty full bookshelf though of things like Illustrated editons, some real nice printings of some of my favorites, older books, and comics/graphic novels.
My biggest issue with libraries is the limited selection, how much time it takes and the how inconvenient it is to find new books.
