Sobre mimUs, rather: LTG and Skippy, just simple city folks
Sobre a minha bibliotecaHow did this happen? Well, with a library this size you know that we didn't buy much at full price! Library, college, and AAUW book sales are the biggest source. There's a lot here from bargain remainder booksellers. There's also a steady drip of acquisitions from second hand bookstores.
There are two collections here as much as one. Individually our interests are eclectic; together they do look all over the map.
LTG is responsible for most of our art, science, religion, and contemporary literature collections(but not Calvino or Kundera!).
Skippy has brought in most of the philosophy, poetry, literary criticism, and social science books.
We share credit (or blame) for the history collection.

I said I'd make it an annual tradition to stop by. The third anniversary of my first message here was two days ago. You're still at the top of our weighted list of libraries with our books. Chuck_ralston pulled away by two in the raw total. We still seem to be about twentieth on your weighted list.
You've been adding a lot of "how to" art books recently. Is this a recent interest or have you been doing art for a while?
Have a good summer,

It's good to finally meet, in the virtual sense of course.
Yes, I picked up the Blumenberg when I was in Germany some 30 years ago. I've always had a strong interest in the theme of transition from the medieval to the modern. I was a bit surprised that the book got translated into English though.
I see that we're now up to about twentieth on your list of members with your books. I think we may have risen up a little higher than that at some point. I just find it fascinating that through all of the permutations of both of our libraries, you've managed to stay at the top of our list of members with our books. In fact, you are currently at the top of both our weighted and raw total lists. I've seen your library at the top of a lot of other people's weighted lists as well. That is probably because you have a comparatively "pure" educated layman/academic collection (as pure as any collection of 4600 books is likely to be). We've got all kinds of side collections (baseball books here, our childrens' books there) that make us less aligned with more focused collections.

Another year gone by. Time flies. I think I'll make it an annual tradition to stop by.
It looks as if you've been adding quite a few books recently. You still come out at the top of our list of members with our books. It looks like we still come out about fiftieth on your list. We may be adding a lot of books again soon. I'll be interested to see whether that affects either of our standings relative to the others.

You may not have noticed us since we're kind of far down on your list of common users, but you've been at the top of our list since we got to 500 books entered. We're about half way done with entering our books, so the really big libraries like ellenandjim may eventually surpass you in raw total. But since we started with the core of our collection, I think you will take the crown as most similar collection.
Best wishes
