Om mit bibliotekTaggage:
Anything tagged ^^ LC/Dewey from book has its Library of Congress and Dewey Decimal numbers pulled from the cataloging-in-publication stuff that can be found in the front matter of some books. If you need this information for a book so tagged, feel free to copy my numbers. Just lop the year off the LC number if you have a different edition than I do.
I use .unread to denote a book I've cataloged but haven't yet read -- regardless of whether I can actually get at it. For unread books that are on my shelves, not in storage, see my .tbr tag.
I have a Short List and a Shorter List. Everything on the latter is also on the former, but not everything on the former is on the latter. (One's short, the other's more short.)
As for my other tags, you'll notice that there is a sizable group (a pair of them, really) of tags near one end of the list, all beginning with an "@". These can be understood as Dewey and LC numbers. These come from all sorts of sources (not just front matter). The first section of these, tags ending with a three-digit number, are Dewey numbers. I have hotspots at 973, 942, and 746. The second group, ending with (generally) a pair of letters, is a ballparking of the LC number. The largest hotspot is @ PR (which in Dewey is spread out over a portion of the 800's). Other hotspots include @ DA (mostly 940's), @ E (mostly 970's), and @ TT (mostly those 746's).
Last Ten Books:
* William Shakespeare, All's Well That Ends Well
* Maria Celeste Galilei, translated by Dava Sobel, Letters to Father: Sister Maria Celeste to Galileo, 1623-1633.
* R.W. Southern, The Making of the Middle Ages.
* Jon Meacham, American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House.
* Brian Greene, The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory.
* Ellen Carol Dubois, Feminism and Suffrage: The Emergence of an Independent Women's Movement in America, 1848-1869.
* Thomas Paine, Common Sense: and Other Writings.
* Susan Brigden, New Worlds, Lost Worlds: The Rule of the Tudors, 1485-1603.
* Phyllis Lee Levin, Abigail Adams: A Biography.
* Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, The Age of Homespun: Objects and Stories in the Creation of an American Myth.

Thank you for mentioning it. :-)

Too bad we didn't get to meet at the TBF. We ended up with sixteen books. Six were ARC 'freebies', and they're duplicates, as we both went to the same talk. So, does that really count? I tend to think so, in the weight and shelfspace considerations.
The first event that Karrell had planned to go to was cancelled, so we went to Reading the Classics for Pleasure together - and that accounts for 2 of the books I bought. We also went to America - United We Stand?, in the House Chamber (very comfy chairs!!). In the afternoon, we were fortunate enough to get into the Vintage/Anchor Books Presents: Writers on Reading, where we got the ARCs. It was very entertaining, and fortunately (for me) well-air-conditioned. Prior to this event, we were outside (lunch and the tents), and I got too much sun exposure (which makes me quite ill now), so the venue was perfect. Karrell was kind enough to nudge me every time I started nodding off (an effect of the recovery from overexposure).
Sunday, I was able to sit in on Scott Simon's talk. His book is the only one I was able to get autographed this year. The introduction (by Mary Gordon Spence) was priceless. The other 3 talks I planned to go to were back-to-back, and all within the 60 feet of each other. The first one, A Romance on Three Legs ended up being a no-show by the author, so I read about 60 pages of her book while waiting (which is somewhat extraordinary for me). It's a very interesting biography of Glenn Gould. So, with ~that~ event being cancelled, I went outside and found that the lines for the other two (one of which wasn't going to begin for another 90 minutes yet, were BOTH so long that they exceeded the capacity of the rooms by at least a factor of two. So, I left. Lots of books to get cataloged, you know.
I'm really bummed that we didn't get to meet. Next year, I'm going to have a LibraryThing tee-shirt on -- no excuses.
And how was your TBF experience?

I originally clicked on your profile because of the movie comments you made (esp. re: Cranford), and had to add your library to my list of interesting ones based on a shared interest in history. About the only books I've cataloged so far are those dealing with colonial America, but I am also very interested in medieval Europe, the Renaissance, the Tudors, etc.
And, of course, I love the painting you have posted. Gorgeous.

Comment is about a photo you took. I saw it in one of the group discussion threads about what wallpaper you have on your computer. It was of beautiful autum trees and a river or lake. I ask becaue how weird is this. My brother in law who lives in NY is a photographer and he send me a picture of what looks like the same spot. Its been my blackberry wallpaper since November. In fact he took it Thanksgiving day. Where is that picture taken? Could it be the same place? I don't know where he took his, I've just sent him an email asking him. Its almost the same exact picture except his doesn't have the building in it.
Wow...Let me know plz

Responding to your question about 26 Gorgeous Hikes on the Western Cote d'Azur and Women Astronomers pointing to the same publisher on the LT site. Each title has its own separate publisher (AzurAlive Press and Stone Pine Press, respectively) but they share a common book distributor (Beagle Bay). That's one mystery solved :).
Hope you enjoy your virtual hiking tour through southern France!

we had a gang of high school kids come to the house, all dressed up as, well,
high school kids.
i gave them all my old cliff notes, they looked at them like
"we can do better than this online."

I see you added common knowledge about some characters I'm interested too (Eleanor of Aquitaine, Richard III). Have you ever read any books by Sharon Kay Penman? Judging from your library I think you will enjoy her novels as well. My favorite is 'Here be dragons'.

Thank you for adding my library to your list of favourites. I am interested in your list of ten books recently read. I would like to add your library as well and look at your books on history.

I am amazed that the Asch Building still stands and is part of the NYU campus. I've walked past it hundreds of times in graduate school and had no idea what had taken place there.
