I've got a new brain.
I've been trying to figure this one out for years. It was a movie I watched during the library period in elementary school. I watched it during the mid/early 90s, but I think the movie seemed older. It was on Laserdisc I think.

Basically it was a movie that probably catered to librarians in that it was meant to teach the values of books in our society. It depicted a future society where books are banned, much like Fahrenheit 451. Alas, it isn't Fahrenehit 451. Basically it's a dystopian society where a bunch of rebel book lovers have some sort of command center, wherein they command a group of freedom fighters battling evil book haters across some industrial wasteland-type setting. It was cheesy as hell, I believe, and it seemed much longer than a regular feature film (although that might have something to do with it being as boring as poo poo).

Was anyone else subjected to this movie?

I think I may have seen this as well. Was there a character named "Abacus", and did they all drive around in an old book-mobile? I think I had to watch something like that in library class back in grade school.

That sounds incredibly like the movie that I'm thinking of.
