About my libraryAn sf fan since grade school, most of my current library is from this genre. I do have a number of non-fiction works in my main interests of World War I aviation, streetcars, lighthouses and covered bridges.

Welcome to Unique Library Thing Book Group! Looks like you have 200+ ultb's. Consider reading http://www.librarything.com/topic/46993. Otherwise enjoy our funny little group.
Hello, rgurskey! You're right, you & I are among the few LTers who tag the cover artists at all. And not many seem to note their books' illustrators, either. Am I the only odd one who tags titles of stories in an author's collection? I'll have to look deeper now... Thanks for the comment, and the interest! BookDoc16
Hallo rgurskey. I am busy cataloguing my books, so it was a great help that you had already quite a lot of the Windsock datafile books. I am hesitating what to do now, because you have spelled the Brandenburg seaplane numbers as Brandenberg seaplanes. What to do ?
Thanks for your help and for the work that you have already done cataloguing these books.

Regards

Dear rgurskey: No way did I have any idea there were so many "Doc Savage" books! I also like some science fiction, my favorite being "The Foundation Trilogy" by Isaac Asimov. I used to live in Oregon, halfway between Eugene and Florence. My favorite lighthouse is Heceta Head, just north of Florence. As an architect who lives in the Midwest, I can also understand your appreciation for covered bridges. I suppose the one that I have crossed the most is the one leading into Brown County State Park, here in Indiana. I've yet to go to the Covered Bridge Festival, but should do that some day. yangguy
