The Junto group was fascinated in various ideas from economics to solving social woes to politics to science. However, they could not turn to books to increase their know-hows or to settle disputes because they owned few tomes. Nevertheless, they recognized that through the Junto's joined purchasing power, books could become available to all members. 50 subscribers invested 40 shillings each to commence a library.
