About meI'm a writer (unpublished), reader (voracious), and librarian (surprise, surprise). I've been a SF geek all my life, and I cannot remember a time before books. TBR-list exceeded life expectancy some time ago; somebody better get on this immortality thing, stat.
About my libraryI'm tracking multiple things, but the primary ones are stuff I own (Your Library) and stuff I've read (Read but Unowned). Library Books Out is a good indicator of just how underwater I am right now. TBR is a reflection of the books I own but have not yet gotten around to; Wishlist is for books I know I want to own a copy of. I have an extensive 'want to read, not to own' list in Evernote.
For the past several years I've been attending WisCon and adding every single book I hear mentioned at panels; obviously this only covers panels I could actually attend, but you can see what I've got in the WisCon collection. I try to add panel tags, too, so you have some idea of the context.
