+BookCrossing is the practice of leaving a book in a public place to be
+picked up and read by others, who then do likewise. The term is
+derived from [bookcrossing.com](https://www.bookcrossing.com), a free
+online book club which was founded to encourage the practice, aiming
+to "make the whole world a library."
+
+This repository is a collection of some bookcrossing labels I made for
+myself. These labels are meant to be put on books before releasing
+them so that other people picking up the books can learn about
+bookcrossing, and know that it is ok to take the book home.
+
+# How to print
+
+*label.pdf* can be printed on A4 paper. The tile spacing of the labels
+in *label.pdf* facilitates easy cutting simply by halving and
+quartering.
+
+*cover-label.pdf* can be printed on Avery J8359 label paper (3 x
+8). These labels are small and are intended to be pasted on the
+front and back covers of the book.
+
+# How to modify
+
+Use [Inkscape](https://inkscape.org) or any other SVG editing program
+to modify the source SVG files.
+
+# TODO
+
+- Tamil labels for labelling Tamil books
