Good as it is to inherit a library, it is better to collect one. ~Augustine Birrell
The Library...in Boxes
This is what 1800+ books look like when moved from a three bedroom house to a two bedroom apartment. They are stacked in the dining area of our apartment so what you're seeing is the tip of the iceberg of boxes stacked 5 to 6 high and 4 to 5 wide. It is going to be A LOT of work getting these on to the shelves...and I lost one of my largest bookshelves in the move. It just fell apart! Luckily, I have another book shelf at my mom's that I can use for my movies and now use the movie book shelf for books. Stay tuned for pics of the finished library. I will also start adding my book catalog to the blog soon.

ReplyDeleteGood luck with moving - and cataloguing! It took me forever to catalogue all our books (and I have about 250 new ones that I'm procrastinating on entering) and then I had to put many of them in bins... no space in our condo :-(
