[Publib] Is it called biblio-interruptus?

[Jim Sanderson]

Well I'd call it "Financial Imperative" but it could be a new use for the
term "Book Drop"

While I haven't taken formal Latin studies (yet), a quick shuffle of my
"Latin for the Illiterati" flash cards leads me to favor "libris
interruptus".... if the reading were indeed of book format.

But personally, I kinda like the "life" answer!
