Mar. 27th, 2006 01:43 amThe weekend alternated between very nice and very lousey.
I spent most of tonight updating my on-line library catalog, you can see the stats here. It's a lot more time consuming than I anticipated, particularly for the older books. I spent an hour or so trying to chase down 3 books printed prior to 1920 and have no copyright date, let alone ISBN or Library of Congress number. I have to look into how to edit them manually at some point.
I've entered my books at work and the better part of three shelves in one case. I still have the rest of those shelves, three more shelves in that case and another case with 4 shelves full. That's going to be at least 15 hours of work, if not more. That's not counting what I have in boxes or the stack I salvaged from the house afer the fire that I don't know what to do with yet.
