We own a lot of flat, dead, trees
May. 20th, 2008 06:56 amThe great book cataloging on Library Thing moves a pace. I think I can safely say I am 2/3 done at 806 books. This does not count the magazines that I want to add, but those are for another time when my brain gets a rest.
The positives from this job are that-
1)The worst will be over soon and then we only have to add new "keeper" books as they come in.
2)Our collection, while not safe from doom per-se, CAN be recreated in case of disaster from the new list.
3)Our homeowners insurance will provide the funds that we will be able to start recreating the collection in case of disaster.
4)I will be able to go to bed at a reasonable time without thinking "Just one more book, let me enter just one more book!"
5)the bookshelves are being condensed and neatened up, not in any sort of order mind you but neat.
ok back to work, one more book, just let me enter one more book, zzzzzzzzzzz......
