Library Update

My library has finally arrived. Ooh how I missed my books - my IVP black dictionaries, my silver NSBT, my primary source stuff (DSS, Jos., Philo etc) and who can forget such items as WBC and NICNT commentaries. And of course my favourite part of the collection: COQG. Then there's BDAG (the only book I have that is listed on my insurance policy). Oh yes, my massive collection of photocopied journal articles. No more long trips to the library several times a day to check articles and reference alas - the Bird Cage is now fully operation.

Some other things arrived too: my wife's clothes, my daughters' toys and their insulin.

  1. So long as we're keeping our priorites in order...

    1) Books and journal articles
    2) clothing for loved ones
    3) insulin

    sounds familiar!

    See you at ETS/SBL I hope,

  2. Life is good again. Sadly, my books are the only thing I could list as my financial assets.

  4. Yes, I'm in the same boat as Alan and Sean (and Erasmus). So, Michael, now that you've got your books are you going to list them in LibraryThing like the other cool bloggers?

  5. No Brandon, you guys take listing library far too seriously. I have a Word.doc with all my books listed, and that's it.

  6. How have we become so attached to our books!! I've run out of places to put them all. And I'm looking for more at the book tables at SBL!! No one tell my wife. Who shall deliver me?

    Hope to meet up with a few of you at ETS/SBL.
