My resolution this year is to organize my library. Most of my collection is nonfiction, so I’ve started working on putting everything in order by Library of Congress style. The number of books is probably in the low thousands - I think another mission might be to catalog them while I’m at it.

Any tips or suggestions? If you have a larger collection, how do you organize and catalog your books?

    Genre >Author>Release date. Rather than sorting by alpha this last bit lets me browse the timeline of a writer’s work in context.

      Haven’t thought about sorting non-series books by release date, but that sounds like an interesting idea. Since I generally prefer to read from older to new.
