Om mitt bibliotekNotes on Collections:

Books in "Your Library" are those I own. The default state, for books not tagged "unread", is that I have read them. This seems obvious to me. The two collections that are not just subsets of my "Your Library" are:

"Read but unowned": As should be obvious, this does not include every book I've ever read. This is not an exhaustive list of every book I've ever read. Including all the crap i read as a kid or in high school (or, for that matter, the high-school required reading) would make this much, much, much longer. This primarily includes books I've read in graduate school and later, plus a few I read in college that I remembered.

"Wishlist": Books on my wishlist are those I have definite plans to either purchase or borrow from the library. Books I'm only considering do not appear in my account.

Notes on a couple tags:

"not recommended": Hopefully targeted recommendations will soon mean I can just exclude this tag, or the largely redundant "Didn't Like" collection, and get meaningful suggestions.

"jane's": Books belonging to my wife, Jane. I've only entered a fraction of her books, those which I've read and enjoyed, (or found useful, in the case of reference books), plan to read, or those I would have bought if she hadn't. I may end up entering her collection in the future.

"ftppl": Books purchased from the formerly-local (Tucson, AZ) Friends of the Library booksale. Incomplete, since they were tagged from memory and not all are ex-library editions.

Zero stars means a book is something that I can't assign a rating to (like an anthology with stories of variable quality). Half a star is the lowest meaningful rating.

Aha! I kept looking at the subheadings, and totally missed the pencil. Thanks! :)
So I keep hearing, but I don't see anywhere to set it? I poked around on the Local page.
Any time. Living in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, I've seen too much bigotry and stupidity to let something like this go by without at least a comment.
Wow. Your review of "Aqua Shock" was truly no-holds-barred, ad vry helpful therefore. Thanks for saving me the eyeblinks!

Cheers
Just wanted to say I'm honored to be added to your "Interesting libraries" list. We share a lot of books, and I'm looking forward to having a closer look at your collection!
"since it isn't apparent to everyone that I am in fact not an idiot."

I knew you weren't! :oD Doesn't that cheer you up? LOL
thanks for pointing me to the "what would you pay for" thread. The biggest problem i have with LT is finding "help" and user information beyond/behind the faq. I would defn. pay again for a viable online music equivalent of LT-the book. And I agree w/ the poster who mentioned that LT ought to have a means, ala Wikipedia, where one can just donate money directly.
About "excuse me for stepping on foot." . . . Many years ago I tried to teach politeness to deaf children (no easy task in those days when signing was prohibited). I did my best. This set off a frenzy. Much INTENTIONAL foot-stamping accompanied by their version of EXCUSE ME! (Prompted by your post in Hot Topics) esta
i'm impressed (seriously) by your helper badges, though i'm not quite sure how they get assigned. I HAVE noted how helpful your suggestions have been. I hadn't realized i'd "earned" any when i saw my 3???
I most save face here. That was during grad school to make extra money. I am now in biotech.
Except those who resorted to systems administration to support themselves!
I'm glad someone recognises how to do nested quoting! (re your reply in a thread on CK)
Must go back to doing it myself here...
Problem seems to have disappeared.
Looks good. Let's try an apostrophe in a word.
