Drool!

Would mean a lot of dusting!

No crap. Spiders everywhere I bet.
I long for the day when someone invents a magical force field thing that eliminates dust and unwanted critters.

Huh... I thought this post would be about fun books to read with steamy scenes.  Too bad.  I was going to say the Anne Rice Sleeping Beauty trilogy... I can't find my book three....

BTdubs, that Dublin library is stunning!

If someone wanted to copy that, they would only have to figure out how to make the parts and assemble 'one' section, then just repeat.

Plus 1,499 books on the same device
I still have overfilled shelves and several boxes of physical books

Those who have the Kindle, can you tell me about your experience with it?

The closest to organizing my books I've come to in recent days is keeping my engineering textbooks kinda close together in the same general area in the same room. And nine out of ten times that fails.

The biggest book-gasm I've had recently was strolling through the university library after they finished doing the rebuild and adding more shelves. I kid you not, on one floor, I just walked by taking note of what subjects were on the shelves in one complete circle. Took me over an hour.

Anyone see video of the book retrieval system at the Library of Congress?

I was with a friend of mine in a library years ago. He had his five-year-old son with him. After telling his son about the library and showing him the card catalog and how it worked the boy looked at him and said, "I'm going to read all of these books."

Five years later he was well into the fiction and had started to randomly go through the non-fiction.
