Been meaning to extend my digital bookshelf for a while.
Finally got around to adding an anti-library – a collection of books I haven't read, but like the idea of having read: maggieappleton.com/antilibrary

Awesome, great stuff here! And thx for the antilibraries shout :)
I'm planning to do some salons soon on antilibrary curation / personal librarianship / future of reading…working on a course diving further into these topics as well

Very in for the I.I. salons on this.
Would love to chat about realistic expectations in the sea of information overwhelm. Bayard's ethos of 'How to Talk About Books you Haven't Read". Using literature reviews outside of academia.
Yessss, great topics. Just read Bayard's followup book, basically same idea applied to place/travel, also fun :) Expansive approach to lit review I haven't thought about much but sounds like a great one to get into
