So there is a loud party near my house and I can’t sleep so I decided to see how many books I have in my house. There is this trend that says that 1.000 books make a library and I wanted to see if I have more. I am at 1.697 books and I haven’t counted 14 shelves, a bookcase, some books that are just hanging around the house (You know the ones you read at the same time and the books that you may want to read next) and some books that we have in closets and boxes cause we were out of bookcases 🤣🤣

I really want to find and count the rest!

I have at least four libraries, then, it seems. (My ex-librarian mother estimated ~3000 twenty years ago based on board-feet of occupied shelving, and I’ve only acquired more since.)

  • What does “&c” mean? It’s an old-fashioned abbreviation for et cetera.
