Om mig HI,

I have a passion for books and manuscripts, especially ancient ones.

Om mit bibliotek My Library

My library consists of a wonderfully eclectic mix of books and other related items. It includes non-fiction works related to my various interests, hobbies and collections and fictional works ranging from some of the latest best-selling novels to classical authors. It also includes a small group of rare books and manuscripts.

LibraryThing Catalog

My LibraryThing catalog is a work in progress. There is still much cataloging to do. Have gotten a good-bit of the easily accessible stuff entered. Next challenge is to tackle the books which have been packed away, including those cherished childhood favorites. I'll save most of the non-English and non-Latin character items for last. My catalog lists only "books" which I own and are part of my library.

Have fun exploring my catalog of books. Though, keep in mind, it may not necessarily be a true reflection of its creator. Like many people, ones "library" tends to become almost an organic thing. Growing and expanding in many different ways over time as "books" enter it from a variety of sources. So, simply owning a book, does not necessarily mean I have read or can read it (I have books in in over a dozen different languages, ancient and modern.) or in some cases, agree with or even have any interest in its contents or subject matter. It may simply be a book with an attractive binding or something I found in a box of books rescued from oblivion in the trash and didn't have the heart to get rid of it.

Magazines, journals and similar publications are listed as "single" entries with the run dates and volume ranges noted. Currently, electronic publications (PDF and other formats), audio-books, records (in various formats), audio-tapes, CD's, VHS tapes, DVDs, photographic images (in various formats), maps and most ephemera are not listed in my LT catalog.

LibraryThing Default Book Covers

The selection of LibraryThing default book covers includes images of covers from four books in my library. Are you using one of them as your default book cover? Want to learn more about any of these books? They can be found listed in my LT catalog with the "LT default cover" tag. Also, each of the the book cover images shown below links to the book's details. I have included some additional information about the book and/or its binding in the Comments section.




Digital Images

A number of manuscripts and other items from my collection have been digitally imaged and are available for viewing on-line. A link in either the Review or Comments section of my LibraryThing catalog is included for any item which has been imaged and is included in an on-line exhibit or image database.

To view some of the ancient manuscripts and other items from my collection or to learn more about the history and archeology of books visit my Website, The Papyri Pages.
