So the new residence is coming along. Since it was a four-hour move to the middle of the state I hired movers so I could get it all in one run; I learned that I own 4300 pounds worth of crap and that doesn't even include the car. To save money I didn't have them unpack it, so it's still about half in boxes around the house. (I'm renting the first

Where are you living now?? Middle of the state = mid-PA = closer to me? :)

About four hours from you, I think. :)

Not bad, not bad . . . I'd love to hang out with you sometime!

I, too, enjoy mid-century books (especially the trashy and the pulp) but for me, a library ought to be a place for newer things I wanted to try out or don't think I'll like enough to buy. While a used bookstore is where I can pick up said books for a buck or maybe even a quarter if I'm being especially lucky.

I guess I figure, if the choice is between a pulpy crime novel from the late forties and a pulpy crime novel from last year, the library should err on the side of modernity. I have about eight million librarians on my flist so I hope a couple of them weigh in.

I actually agree with that.
