I arrange my books by Dewey, in part because I had to memorize the system in library school lo these many years ago. For the most part, I know what Dewey number a book should be in and just go straight there. For those I don't know or am not sure about, a LibraryThing search among my own books will turn up the Dewey number I assigned to it.

The books themselves have their call numbers written on a small, inverted Post-It that is stuck to the top of the front flyleaf, such that the part with the number on it sticks up from the top adjacent to the spine. This makes it easy to scan the shelf for the right number and to replace the book in the right place afterwards.
Whaddya know, I'm deaf too (since early infancy). Thanks for adding me as an "Interesting Library".
you might enjoy the book "Seeing Voices" by Oliver Sacks
If you like Jewish books, check out my catalogue. I have many Jewish and Messianic books.
Paul Harvey Aurandt (born September 4, 1918), better known as Paul Harvey, is the listed author of "The Rest of the Story" books. I am hoping all the owners of his books will change the author box to say Paul Aurandt so they will untangle the several authors on the Paul Harvey page.

I had to come over to take a look at your online library after seeing that you were the only other member with the 'favourite family foods' mennonite cookbook. I must say, we share a rather eclectic mix of books!
