The Selling Books blog has recently review GuruLib, a tool to help organize your items:
“Using a bookshelf metaphor, GuruLib helps you catalog books, movies, music, games and software on its Web site. For example, you could use it to keep track of books or movies you’ve loaned to friends. Cataloging information is pulled either from Amazon or public libraries.”
I just came across Linda & Stan Zielinksi’s website and it is filled with free information specific to collecting and selling Children’s Books.
Here is an excerpt from their site:
“This website offers free information for the beginning and advanced collector of contemporary children’s picturebooks. We provide a solid introduction to the hobby, children’s book values, and first edition identification points for key picturebooks, including Dr. Seuss and Caldecott Medal books.”
Book Ride has compiled a list of celebrity book collectors like Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Jimmy Paige, etc.

I’ve always found it amazing that loving books has no class distinction whatsoever.
