Om mig Quoi de neuf? I have an MA in French, and I'm working on an MLS with an emphasis in Rare Books and Special Collections. I'm just WILD about incunabula, illuminated manuscripts, famous (and crazy) illustrators, french and italian literature, maps, and maritime history (pirates, exploration, shipwrecks!) I also dig the occult, the romantics, surrealism, horror movies, cosmology and string theory. And other things.

Om mit bibliotek If I could afford to buy the books I really wanted to own, I wouldn't be a librarian;)

I thought I'd read most of Beckett, but don't recognize
Premiere Amour. I'll have to check it out. Zola is also
one of my favorites. La Bete Humaine is a classic.
Have you read Francis Carco? Another french noir.

The best that I can come up with is Quod di bene vortant, but I've no idea what it means!
Quite a lot of catalogues have 17th c. stuff with that in the title though, mainly sermons etc. It might be worth posting a message on the group Ask Librarything. If you find out, let me know: that'll really buy me now!

No I haven't done much rare book cataloguing alas! I worked as a graduate trainee for six months which is recognised by the Uk equivalent of ALA, so I had training for modern books. I watched a colleague catalogue rare books from scrtach - it looks hard but much more interesting, thinking about provenance and bindings etc. I think the trick seems to be in thinking about what potential researchers might find useful and making sure to add it. It's fascinating stuff!

Hello,
I saw that you've posted a few times lately on the cataloguers who LT thread and I thought I'd say hi.
I'm in the UK studying for an MSc and would like to move into rare books librarianship at some future point. I'm currently trying to learn Latin from scratch (harder than I thought!) I'm interested in the objects themselves but also in creating the bib record that will unite reader and item, allowing the books themselves to be located and consulted. I enjoy organising knowledge.
I really love 18th and 19th c. travel books, and 15th c. books of maps and travellers' tales of exploration. Fascinating.

I spelled like wrong.

That sounds liek a worthy idea... though, now that they're organized, the point becomes moot.

Click on the cover under your library catalog page and there is an option "change cover." It takes you to a screen where it gives you a bunch of choices. If the one you actually have isn't there, you can upload it. I have a few left to upload. I don't have a scanner, but, for many of them, I was able to Google them and find an image that matched somewhere, which I then saved and uploaded.

In my library, right not, if you see a cover, that's the one I have. If you don't, it meas I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet, and I need to scan it some day.

Now, go be OCD like your cousin!

Hey. Are you as OCD about getting the right cover on your page as I am?

skrevet af arijin kl. 7:51 pm (EST) den Jul 14, 2007

They're OLD!!! From when I was little.

In one minute, I will be done adding my library.
