Is there any method of distributing printed information in this city? Books, newspapers.

Being provided with everything is no reason to allow creativity to go stagnant.

[Itachi can be found sitting outside the Seventh Heaven with a cup of tea, just taking in the scenery. His Akatsuki robes, though later reacquired in town, have been ditched in favor of a loose blue silk shirt.

He still seems a bit lost in thought, but otherwise far more collected than he'd been previously.]

Well there are certainly plenty of books, enough for a library, but as for newspapers, the place is sadly lacking. No postal system either. If you wanted to write something down on hardcopy, there's no shortage of spare paper, but it'd be up to you to get it to the recipient.

I was thinking along the lines of a printing press of some sort.

As a matter of fact, I was talking to one of the people in charge about getting one of those a while back. They provided during one of the drafts, but it was in the building out there, so it's not much use to us now.

Ah, but I might be getting ahead of myself. Do you know about the drafts yet?

[You're trying to sneak up on a ninja, Winry? Really? One who's eyesight has been slowly failing and has thus had to rely on his other senses more and more?

Yeah, he's just going to pretend you aren't there and let you think you're being successful.]

Oh, there are tons of books.

[voice | same filter]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

But no more being created, meaning we're limited to the stories and information we're given originally.

[ratnavati.livejournal.com]

That a problem for you? Make your own.

For a long while there was a manga being published here, but as the author was sent home the manga stopped...

[She can't help but sigh at the memory, she liked Rohan and he had been a good friend. Someone to talk to. But it was better this way, after all, his girlfriend was sent home first and she remembers how it depressed him. Now they are back home together.]

I'm not exactly sure as to how it was distributed though. I know of other cases of pamphlets being made and distributed but those were delivered personally by selected individuals.

Is that so? Clearly it's possible, then.

Anything is possible in the world, the impossible only comes from failed attempts combined with giving up. It all depends on your resolution and creativity, though usually it works better with several people involved for things like this.

There's various books in library but none of them were written by any of the people here. Er, well they're from people's respective worlds but still that is a wonderful idea you have!

[voice]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

Have you spent much time in the library here?

[voice]

[folklorist]

I have actually. There's such a big selection despite it's size and the books are rather interesting too.

[voice]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

There's the library. And I'm sure one of the shops probably has blank books to write in.

[voice]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

And if someone wanted to write for the sake of others?

Unfortunately, distribution is mainly done through the journals or other arranged leaflets. You may copy something into your journal and tear out the page though, as a copy will remain over the network.

As you already said, creativity.

I see. [Just getting a general feel for things here.]

The village isn't large, a public announcement in the square can go a long way.

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

Do you have public announcements?

[Voice]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

I usually rely on the journals for that, though I remember someone expressing interest in making newspaper before.

[Voice]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

Do you think it would be at all beneficial?

What did you have in mind?

[Ah, the fresh smell of industry... someone make it go away. Before it gives her captain Ideas.]

I was mostly thinking out loud. Several solutions have already been offered to me, but I had been thinking along the lines of a printing press.
