About me I'm a librarian in the north east. I have an obsession with books, but this is not related to my being a librarian- each functions independantly of the other. I live for moments when books cross into my little web2.0 world. I am a Bookcrossing member so I love to release books that I get. I also participate in Paperback Swap to get rid of and find new books. I have a personal goal to read all the books in Nancy Pearl's Book Lust (both volumes). It's about 4,000 books over 2 volumes. I am just focusing on the first volume of books and I expect it to take years, maybe the rest of my life.
Other things about me, I am a novice public speaker. I am an instruction librarian so I guess on some level I am a professional speaker. I would love to be a real professional speaker some day. I am a member of Toastmasters to help me make that happen. I live for Apple products, if only I could afford them all. I live with a cat who thinks books are chew toys.
About my library My library is an odd thing. It is a combination of things I have read, things I own, things I have listened too and things waiting to be read. If items are tagged with "swapped" it could mean many things, but the one thing it always means is that I no longer have it. I also have a "Book Lust" tag to note items that are part of my Book Lust challenge and a tag "book club" to note books read with my book club. I live to tag so I could really go crazy if I wanted.

The book lust "challenge" as I call it is coming along. Slow but steady. I am definitely interested in the group. The only sticky point is that I have a decidedly weird system for how I chose which books to read when. For example Jane Gardam was born in the month of July so I read 'Bilgewater' as a tribute. Idaho became a state in July so now I'm reading 'Finding Caruso' (set in Idaho). See what I mean? Quirky system but it works for me. ;)
ps~ you are verrrry ambition to add the Crush books to your list! I don't dare!
