About me Well, I'm still under a book buying ban - but it doesn't matter so much now that I'm in library school, and I'm not supposed to have time to read for fun!

Luckily my current course has a requirement to 'immerse myself in children's literature' and I am very comfortable putting my head under the water.

About my library Woah! All of my books are now in one place. That place is a pile of cardboard in my sitting room. Cataloguing them all was a better idea in theory than in reality, but let's see how I get on! - OK they're in, now for the - ulp - tagging.

Policy:
- My wishlist grew out of control, so I stopped adding to it, but I am reading my way through it.
- I add books I've borrowed to my collection, mostly so I can review them.
- I do include free ebooks that I have read - again, mostly so I can add reviews, and note which ones to buy in hard copy.
