An interesting essay I came upon today. Any fellow book-collector can relate to the question - "What are you going to do with all those books?"

All Those Books, by Matthew Cheney.

By the way, the summer clearance sale at Barnes and Noble is still going on. Lots of books for $2 or $5. The website navigation is horrible, though. It's easy to narrow down the results, but hard to narrow it down to the category you WANT, in less than 5 clicks. It's also hard to get from one category to a neighboring one.
