@reinoradeboer Ik heb ook boeken over kookboeken ;-) en in Mozarts Menu schreef ik over de hausse in kookboeken in de 18de eeuw. Opmerkelijk, de ontdekking van de huisvrouw (burgeres) als doelgroep.

Day 4: All done! Less than 7% of all books didn't scan, all unscanned books were children's books save 4! So glad to be finished! Hopefully won't have to do this again for a long time! Positive experience with LibraryThing tho the app did close periodically and could be a bit glitchy but overall effective. All cataloged! Nice to get a sense of what areas have grown since I did this last. Nice overview!

Day 3: All books have been washed! All shelves have been washed, and everything is sorted, scanned, and on the shelves save history, languages, and travel which will be scanned tomorrow. Only one book didn't scan today (Cooking Classic Italian in Taiwan) so very high success rate compared to children's books. Mass market paperbacks were difficult to scan but academic books were easy.

Children's books are done! 11.7% did not scan (mostly readers, French, and 1980s). Calling it a day before tackling the rest of the books. I love how clean and tidy the shelves look now. So far appreciate

Expanding the library sources that LibraryThing pulls from to include French and Public Libraries means that the app recognizes more books! Slowly making headway through the children's books. Still a few 80s books that aren't recognized.

Day 2 of scanning books into a catalog app. Good opportunity to wash the shelves and dust the books. Slow but satisfying. The children's books seem to have fewer in the catalog so doing them first. Perhaps because many are older books from or the clearance store.

I'm supposed to be writing job applications so procrastination it is.
Adding another tier to my temporary shelves which means rearranging. And rearranging means browsing. What you can't see is all the piles of books I'm moving downstairs to my office. This queenslander has a crazy high ceiling in the main space so I'm hoping to one day have custom-made built-ins all the way up.

I’ve been on a bit of a book buying session. I like books, especially ones related to hobbies. Some are useful modelling references, others are purely because I enjoy learning more about the period leading up to the start of the Second World War.

Sure, sex is good, but have you ever reorganised your living room library (again) so there’s no horizontal shelving?

A fine pencil sketch of a chicken on the inside cover of an antique copy of Pater's The Renaissance.

I have collected some oddities. Here's an old libretto for The Valkyrie, published who-knows-when.

I’m new to Mastodon. I don’t know what I’m doing yet. As usual, I’ll probably figure it out as I go along.

These images are some corners of my home library. I’m probably holed up here somewhere.

It's been a week of book inventory. I am only halfway through! It's tiresome, but I have to admit that there've been some delightful rediscoveries.

When @littleelfman and I moved into this apartment over a year ago, they let go of two bookshelves (and the books that went with them).

After an afternoon out photographing on the lands of the Boonwurrung people, I got home late last night to discover they'd bought a bookshelf and had measured the remaining space and lo and behold another bookshelf will fit!

If you're in Naarm, looking for children's or YA books, Michael has you covered. They've only had 20yrs in the industry... 😂
