Not horribly active in anything these days, combination of ADD, Narcolepsy, SAD, allergies, arthritis, OCPD, fibromyalgia... if it weren't for my being innately cheerful I'd really be depressed, as it is a certain level of depression is unavoidable. So I read silly books, and feel better.

About my library Mainly in boxes at this time, something about slowly remodeling sections of the building...

It's big, ok? 30yr+ runs of Astounding/Analog, F&SF, long runs of IASFM, Galaxy/IF, etc. Tons of SF/F books, significant amounts of Harlequin/Silhouette Romances ($0.49 @ local Goodwill makes this *very* affordable!), significant European pre-1700 history/culture, growing woodworking/homebuilding/maintenance collection, etc.

As I add items, it is brought home to me just how diverse my collections are, the breadth and depth; it really *is* a research library! Also how unique some of the items are. Which results in a fair number of manual entries, aided and abetted by my desire to use this as a partial insurance inventory [if I list it in here, I have it, and the edition matches].

Well, a year later, I log on and have added the missing "O" you requested. Thanks for your attention to detail!

Yes, I saw that too, when I added it! I'm not sure how or why it happened, but, I'll do what I can to clean it up! Thanks for reminding me - I noticed it when I added it, but I would have forgotten all about it without your comment!

Thanks for the note about the author issue. I fixed it up and all is well in the webster world again.

Thanks for the heads up on the Dennis Schmidt correction (it was/is an Amazon.com import error, but who knows how long it would have taken me to catch it?). I think the easiest way to find these errors is to examine the books that LT claims only you own, because I went from sole ownership of Mr. Schmidt's book to sharing it with 8 others after correcting the author name.

Also, you're definitely right about the difference(s) between Schmidt, Dennis and Schmitz, James H., but I like them both :)

Thanks again.

And just looked at your notes -- I've got a pretty good run of Astounding myself...

And I haven't even started on my research type books.

Correction made and thanks! I know there's a lot of weird stuff in this, I keep my primary information in Readerware, and clean that up as I go, but all I do here is export ISBNs for more recent material, and the initial import was around 4500 books. But it makes a nice backup and I think this has the potential to be an interesting community.
