It's basically a good idea with a reference image library. However, the PDML
member base changes constantly so if the members today buy the book
tomorrows members won't have a clue. Why not try to use the web instead? We
have the PUG as a common library, there are also lots of other sites with
famous photographers works. Anytime someone wants to make a point related to
a certain reference, just submit the url. Check for example:

http://www.royaltyfreeart.com/ansel/index.html (not Ansel Adams most famous
pictures, but still).
http://www.magnumphotos.com/index.html
http://masters-of-photography.com/

For myself, I will also check the proposed titles. Your recommendations of
good books are worth a lot.

Bob,
I have a feeling it means I'll be citing page numbers from the book from now
on and nobody will have a clue what I'm talking about because nobody will
have bought the book...  :-)
