About meAnglophile librarian from Switzerland with a special interest in Book and Library History, English classics and detective novels from the 1920s and 1930s

About my libraryMy library on Library Thing contains only a small part of my actual library at home. I try to add as many of my book and library history books as possible. Apart from these, my libary contains some of my most favourite books and I keep adding those I'm reading at the time.
