Satunnainen kirjavalikoima kirjastosta, jonka omistaa jmp3613

Tietoja minusta OK, like many in my field, I spent waaay to long in graduate school and spent another long time scrambling to find a job in Austin. Lucky for me the state's payroll and benefits are enough to sustain life, at least at a minimum, in this fair city. Meanwhile, all my discretionary income gets poured into 1) bath products, 2) obscure early classical music CDs, 3) period costume reproductions (yeah, I know) and 4) you guessed it, books.

Tietoja kirjastostani I am a online book-buying addict. I also have lots and lots of library books. God, I really need to have someone come over and steal them all, but I can't give any of them up. The core of my collection began when I was a teen. Some are from grad school, but most have been purchased since I became a salary-earning adult.

Thanks for adding me to the interesting libraries list. I'm still entering books and feeding my book addiction! It's interesting that you know someone in Cleveland, TN. It's not exactly a metropolis. I noticed one of your tags was on Louisiana. I lived in Baton Rouge for 10 years. It's definitely an interesting place!

I see that we both own Hadden's book on Civil War reenacting. Had you noticed that he is also on LT as "hadden"?

`yep, you detect a librarian...special collection...Maryland History room...

And you may have seen my posts on Authentic Campaigner, since I think you post there as well?

Both, although I prefer "living history" to reenactor.....I'm the president of AGSAS, a civilian living history group on the east coast (www.agsas.org). I do more handwork than dress sewing, and 19th century knitting and needlework are particular interests...I haven't gotten those titles up yet, but will get them soon!! I'm just beginning to get my books in this database.....love it!!

Bonjour. Thanks for adding me to your "interesting libraries" list - I found yours very fascinating and quite comprehensive. I notice you have Hughes' The Fatal Shore in your collection - it's a reminder to add my copy to my catalogue! All the best.

Wow, your websites are fantastic. I didn't get a chance to read everything last night when I looked at them because I was supposed to be applying for jobs but very impressive. The images of the grave markers you have on there remind me of an "odyssey" project I did in high school. I went around my county marking where old plantations were and whether or not they had slave graveyards still "findable". The local Afro-American Historical Society became very interested in what I was doing and I have since donated the whole project to them. Now that I think about it I had forgotten how much fun that was.

Thanks for the encouragement on the master's in history thing and getting a job thing. Sometimes both seem like they're never going to happen (even though I know they will). :) Anyways, nice talking to you.

HELLO! I'm replying to your message to me. We certainly do have a lot of books in common!!!! Most of my collection runs to the historical, as in costuming, photography, Civil War, museum exhibits or historic sites, and diaries/journals.

I finally checked off a long awaited to do item by cataloging my book collection on LT. A friend of mine had mentioned it to me a long time ago. I still have books to add, but their in storage at my brother's house. We may have more titles in common by the time I add those title to my LT.

Good to meet you!!! ;O)

Yes. I ran across that reprint a few years ago. I was happy to be able to have a copy without having to track down a copy at a library. (The one in which I work doesn't have one.)

Hello jmp3613
Thanks for the email. I did my masters thesis on the 1927 flood in Northeast Louisiana. Interviewed approximately 100 elderly people....all of them are deceased now. I am a native of Waterproof, LA in Tensas Parish. My Great grandmother was Ludie Patout...so I am a stockholder in MA Patout and go to the stockholders meeting frequently. Betty Jo Harris

Here are a few of my books. I'm the the process of cataloging some 1600+ titles in my personal collection.
