Daisy - question for you
Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2009 1:42 pm
Hi Daisy! I am in the middle of a sea of books and sorting, sorting, sorting. I have empty tubs, one for each of the categories you shared. I taped each description for each category on separate tubs, and that is really helping. Thanks soooo much!!!
I have a few questions - probably silly ones - but ones I need to ask. Do you put all picture books/chapter books in the "Literature" category? For example, I have One Small Square: Backyard. Would that go in Science or Literature? I also have Who was Helen Keller? - would that go in History (because it's a biography), or Literature? Another example - If Your Name Was Changed at Ellis Island - History or Literature? One more example, If You'd Been There in Bible Times - History or Bible?
One more question - I went to the "Library Thing" website and am unsure what exactly it does. I don't want to chat with others about books (this board's got my heart and time
), but I love the idea of some help with the cataloging part. It looks like it costs a bit of money - can you tell me in a nutshell what it would do to help me with typing up a catalog to track our books?
Sorry to bother you - just answer as you have time. I can always re-sort! I know there's not one right way to do this, but I figure you've learned a thing or two about how best to fine-tune this system. Thanks!!!
In Christ,
Julie
