  1. I see this video circulating today : be aware that this is an ad for a bookbinder who wants do display their craftsmanship, not for real historical book restoration.

    If you have old books and would like them to stay in shape, prefer soft methods that respect their history.

    Here, two French examples on how it is made :

    This is the third post I am making on this fabricated "outrage"

    When I death cleaned my parents house, I threw out close to 1000 books.

    Threw out as in recycling, together with plastic bottles and aluminum foil.

    NO ONE WANTED MY OLD BOOKS.
    NOT EVEN FOR FREE.

    Let me repeat that for the pearl clutching folks in the back.

    NO ONE FUCKING WANTED MY OLD BOOKS !!!

    At least ingested into the orphan crushing machine, they may survive in some form.

  7. Today, I received a phone book with my mail. A hard copy. Yellow pages and all.

    I wasn't even aware that was still a thing.

  8. Good morning bibliophiles. It's a bit of a grey day in Winchcombe, perfect for reading or book shopping.

    New stock in includes this super sweet 2001 Limited Edition Dean's Rag Book Bear and the brilliant Booklover's Guide to Bookshops 2024 Calendar by Thomas Shepherd.

    #Google used to use #ReCAPTCHA to digitise #oldBooks. A good and fair use of the #technology, if and only if, you can access said #books #freely. Remember the two word #CAPTCHAs, that's what they were.

    These latest ones are about helping produce #selfDrivingVehicles. I don't trust them to do this. I done trust anyone to do this.

    Don't do them.

    If you must, use the #voice variant, and be creative with it *wink*.
