How's it going OChiLibrary? We at OWS keep plugging along. We've just lost a space that's been housing the library over the summer and we're hustling to get it into a new space--exploring our options. What's it look like in Chicago?

I'm a cataloger at the Wisconsin State Historical Society library, and I took it upon myself to get our library organized again. Months ago, our info tent didn't stand up well to a rainstorm, and we lost most of our library items as a result. We now have a hoop house, built to stand up to winter weather, and we've gradually accumulated more items again (I contributed a bunch myself, including items that the WSHS library received as donations, but didn't need), so I decided it was time to get it organized.

I'm actually still getting used to LibraryThing, especially its limitations, since I'm used to cataloging properly for a "real" library catalog!
