This week in personal libraryland, I had a lovely conversation with a student who said the word bibliophile. Of his own accord! ♥
More good things that I connected with this week include…
♥ … this Flavorwire gallery of 10 essential books for book nerds. One of them is called The Man Who Loved Books Too Much. No. Such. Thing.
♥ … this fun site called Library Sleevefacing, from BGSU’s Music Library and Sound Recordings Archives. What is sleevefacing? Go, explore, and find out!
♥ … this list of totally sweet library websites. My personal fave on this list is the Syracuse University Library site.

Sleevefacing? Someone really needs to find a better term for that! All I keep thinking of is that Clorox commerical: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr0jxoojMdw
Made you look! And then you made me look! It’s all good.
Thanks for the mention
Sleevefacing… love it, too bad it can pretty much only be done with vinyls. Bookfacing would probably have to involve a Barbie doll model.
You’re welcome, Kaylin! Tee hee, bookfacing… perhaps could be done with larger picture books. You never know what the interwebs will bring next!
