I still keep the Excel spreadsheet, but I don't consider a book to be properly cataloged until it is entered into LibraryThing.Aaron Poundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11747596648152141394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-71044107930660473702012-06-12T14:33:29.621-04:002012-06-12T14:33:29.621-04:00@Aaron - Cataloging...I started with a spiral note...@Aaron - Cataloging...I started with a spiral notebook, then moved to 3X5 cards, until I'd accumulated about 6,000 books, then typed it all into an early database mgmt software called PFS File, then exported that to create an Access database, then exported from there to HTML/XML, and it's all out on my blog, so I can see it from anywhere I have wifi - like standing in the aisles of an antiquarian bookstore.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05920772209272112515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-85767861210621602862012-06-11T15:41:29.779-04:002012-06-11T15:41:29.779-04:00@Julia Rachel Barrett: She's certainly a bette...@Julia Rachel Barrett: She's certainly a better fifth element than the one that Aristotle selected.
