Musing Mondays – How Many

About how many books (roughly) would you say you own? (If you don’t have a clue how many, do you care to know? Why, or why not?)

Unfortunately I’m still working on going through my book collection, both hardcopy and ebooks, so I don’t have an exact number. What I do have are estimates.

For hardcopy books I own somewhere around 550 books. This however does not include my textbooks, which I keep. So if you include those the count would be closer to 570-580.

As far as ebooks are concerned. If the properties thing is correct for the folder they are in, I own somewhere in the neighborhood of 2150 ebooks. I had no idea, but thats a lot of ebooks.

Final count: approximately 2700 books.

Wow.

      I’ve been working on building both my ebook and hard copy library, but ebooks are cheaper (or free) and easier to get so that’s why I have so many more. Either way, it’s good stuff.
