About me- My background is in Antiquarian Books, library procurement, and organizing used book sales for schools and libraries. I’ve had training in book preservation and restoration. I LOVE BOOKS. I’ve collected them since I could hold them and look at their pictures. I still have my very first little books. That said, it’s been a passion and a goal to get books into the hands of people who will love them. Before the internet I did Book Searches for people by combing used bookstores, thrift stores, flea markets, and library sales. My home is smoke-free and pet-free. Thank you for browsing!
