About My Library

My library consists of over 3000 books, though I have had time to catalog only a portion of them on LT, as it takes anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes to completely catalog each book.

Several years ago, I cataloged each volume by 3-digit DDC numbers. (I have since decided to expand to full Dewey numbers, so the cataloging process has completely started over.)

I've got an old five-drawer card catalog from e-bay, as I have always wanted an old-fashioned library card system. Just nostalgia, I guess. Part of my love for my library is in the diligent research for info on each book I add to my collection, so I tend to go about obtaining catalog information the hard way. I search WorldCat, Library of Congress, the British Integrated Catalogues and the Z39.50 Gateway sites to compile all of the necessary info. However, I see, as in so many fields, that computer technology is the way of the future for libraries, and that my card catalog is obsolete in all but its nostalgia. So I have also cataloged my collection on computer data base. LibraryThing is, for me, both a way to connect with others to see what they are reading/collecting, and a third version of my collection. Still, laborously handwriting the Title, Author and Subject cards for each book in my collection for my old-style card catalog is where I get most of my library enjoyment.

About Me

I am an aspiring writer of fantasy and sci-fi. In school I studied Psychology and English Literature (I mainly specialized in Classical, Medieval and Renaissance lit.), but I love literature (and books!) of all kinds. I've been an avid reader since I was a little one, as evidenced by my profile photo. I'm not sure what that magazine is that I'm "reading" in the photo, but I sure seem content with it!
