About meLipstick librarian, femme about town and library-card-carrying lifelong bookworm.

About my libraryEclectic collection of whatever has taken my fancy over the last 30 years or so, plus a record of various library borrowings, so I can keep track of what I've read, as I am apt to forget unless I do...

Slowly adding titles from my home library as the occasion allows, but many many more still to go as yet. My incredibly, if rather predictable librarian-like ambition is to catalogue all my books on LibraryThing with accurate bibliographic information and accompanying representation of the actual cover, but this is proving to be a rather time-consuming endeavour, though nonetheless enjoyable for all that. A busman's holiday indeed.
