Will expect a report on how many you end up buying on your trip to the Disneyland of booklovers.  We were working in the library at the Drum today.  The director is rearranging it and making it a more user friendly place.  Also because of space we are deaccessing copies of books we have four or five copies on on the shelf.  We recently inherited two libraries of friends of the Drum  who had passed away. 

One of the things we have is severals sets of the Time Life series, the silver books.  Today the intern was told to make sure that the one set was complete and then to see how many complete sets we have and how many sets with missing volumes.  One of the board members will price them and then they will be offered to members for sale.  My eyes lit up I have always wanted a set.  Then I looked on line today at Amazon for what used sets are selling for.  The director knows i want a set but I don't think I will be getting one any ways soon.  But just for a brief moment I was dreaming .  I was also kicking myself I didn't buy that set volume by volume as I did several other Time Life Sets.  Oh well
