Tietoja minusta I live with 7,000 books on an island in the Pacific. I'm retired and go kayaking a lot after having a cave with hobbit-door put in. I am not making this up - that's where the kayaks are kept.
The reason I beacame such a reader and SF book collector is that I was sprayed with Agent Orange in CFB Gagetown Canada beginning at the age of one in 1958. Health problems arose. Just Google it for the story because this verges on "too much information."
Tietoja kirjastostani I've never owned a car so guess where my library is? Every inch of wall-space is covered with books. Inside this, I built a twelve-foot long floor-to-ceiling wall to hold some of my SF magazines and anthologies on both sides. I investigated putting bookshelves on the two people-doors but gave that up. Hinges.
My library is mostly SF with 1,700 magazines plus novels, Ace doubles, SF movies, hundreds of anthologies, quite a bit of reference, and single-author story collections. I guess I really collect SF short stories, come to think of it!
Putting all my books in LT is daunting and I have more duplicates than I care to admit. If anybody wants to trade SF magazines or whatever with me, just let me know and I'll send you the list (which also shows how many copies I own). It would be ideal if I could find someone else in my duplicated situation.

Nice book collection, too. Who did your hobbit door? Gandalf?

Oh yes.
I guess that's the punchline of my previous story: I had read them as a kid, and I bought the run of them in Harvard Square back when I was still in my 20s.

I'm reminded of the clerk at the SF shop in Harvard Square (100 yards from the college gate in Cambridge Mass.). I had spotted a set of the '60s Analog "bedsheets" in the back, and was asking him if they were for sale yet. They were, but the clerk just shook his head with wonder at "the futility of collecting pulps on a planet with an oxygen atmosphere."
Come to think of it, that's the shop whose charge slips come through on your monthly statement Doing Business As 'General Products of Terra'. ("Honey, did you happen to buy a starship hull this month?")

LOL. Well, maybe after I retire....
The thing about SF - is that today (after the eBay/ ABE revolution), the 'value' of any given old SF pb is usually pretty nominal. Except, of course, IF it's the particular one that you need.
So I'll have a couple boxes of dupes - - not worth selling on eBay, but too valuable to SOMEBODY out there to just give away to my town library. BookMooch seems like it might be a reasonable solution to getting books into the hands of the right person. I'll report my results, probably to the "Book Mooch" group.

If it works without too much hassle, I'll be using it to get rid of more dupes.
If you'd like to see, I'm "asyouknow_bob" over there, too.
(Only a couple SF titles over there so far.)

And, in other SF news, I started an "Ace Doubles" group; I'm sort of surprised how few LTs hold them (or, at least, how few tag them). You might want to check it out; the discussion has not yet taken off.

(And we live in an island in the North Sea - or the UK as it is otherwise known!:-))

I haven't done much collecting of old SF magazines in many years. I'd love to get the rest of the Astounding SF and the missing early Analog SF, but I don't really think I'd take the time . . .
Glad you can use what I've added. I added covers, too.
