The Library

Years ago I undertook to compile an Encyclopedia of all the Arts and Sciences practiced in Northshield. The concept was that this was to be a collection of beginner's articles, aimed at providing a very basic introduction and a set of resources so that the reader could learn more if desired. Below are the entries compiled thus far. If you would like to contribute an entry on your favorite A&S topic, please refer to the guidelines and contact Eithni for details.

The Stacks

There are now several book-cataloguing sites available on the internet, but I have chosen to use LibraryThing. I have found it to be an easy-to-use and versatile website and the options for library voyeurism are wonderful. Please feel free to do some shelf-reading!

Special Collections

These are the books that are the pride and joy of my collection.

The Early Christian Monuments of Scotland:

A Classified, Illustrated, Descriptive List if the Monuments, with an Analysis of their Symbolism and Ornamentation

J. Romilly Allen and Joseph Anderson

Edinburgh: for the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland by Neill & Co., 1903

With very few exceptions, I have all of DeLint's publically published stories. I even have multiples of a few, thanks to my absent-mindedness in book acquisition.

A significant proportion of my library is books devoted either to the Picts in particular or to early Britain in general. Most of these two shelves are on those topics.
