Getting rid of Books
Nov. 10th, 2003 02:42 pmA quick question:
For those of you who don't consider the very idea anathema, what criteria do you use when weeding through your library?
I've tended to use "I'm definately not going to want to read this again" and "I am actively embarrassed to have this on my bookshelf".
Right now I'm in the sort of anti-clutter mood where I'd be tempted to eliminate half of what's in my study by those criteria. So I'm going to hold off on sorting books. (OTOH, I would then have ample shelf space.)
