- About My Library
- The books I'm actively collecting and (mostly) reading at the moment are generally mountaineering- or travel-related.
A note on how I'm using the Collections feature: Your library = books I own; Wishlist = books I'd like to buy for my collection; To read = books I plan to read over the next month or so; Mountaineering and Travel are major areas of interest and include books that I actually have, books I've read but don't own as well as books I'd like to have; Read but unowned = books that I've read but are not in my possession either because I borrowed them or have passed them on; Watchlist keeps track of books I might borrow or buy in the near future.
