Guns and food were the items that brought independent blockade runners the most profit. Blockade runners were also used by the military in the South during the Civil War. A blockade runner is a smaller ship that could reach high speeds on the open seas.

What were the items that brought blockade runners the most profit during the US Civil War?
Blockade running was fairly successful during the US Civil War. These were primitive naval times for sea going vessels. At night, for example, stopping a blockade running vessel was almost impossible. Experts to this day dispute whether the Union's blockade was a significant factor in the combination of factors that led to the South's surrender. As far as the most profitable items that slipped past the blockade, these were luxury items such as perfumes or precious gems.
Are all libraries non-profit?
No. There are a lot of for-profit libraries. Most for-profit libraries are corporate libraries, while non-profit libraries tend to be public libraries. Many libraries charge other libraries for the use of their resources - particularly if they have rare or subject specific items. This charge varies from library to library, however it is often very expensive for public libraries and they typically lose money in providing this service.
