Whether you've finished, or not :-).<BR/><BR/>About the books...I've had my own inner debate on this same thing, as I have some very, very old books and journal archives (not in very good shape)that I have cut into for images and I ask myself if I should be saving them. But then, saving them for who? The dustbin? Most old books are not really valuable, and not worth much(there are exceptions I know). Mick is right there are sooooo many books out there, we can't save them all, and quite frankly, shouldn't. I like to think that when I cut and use the images I am giving them a second life that they wouldn't have otherwise. I'm talking about 100 year old images here (yep, I've done it).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-71697886409088766362008-05-22T10:01:00.000-07:002008-05-22T10:01:00.000-07:00you perform book cpr form waht I see...hope all is...you perform book cpr form waht I see...hope all is well there....my best.John M.

Plus, there are library books that are routinely sent to the dustbin once their useful life has been reached. Anyway, I love what you're doing too ... keep at it! :)Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17423557003198168150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-65854442779736480062008-05-21T04:15:00.000-07:002008-05-21T04:15:00.000-07:00I am a book lover, but I think it is wonderful wha...I am a book lover, but I think it is wonderful what you do with your books and I sure can appreciate it. I don't think it is sacrilege at all. Some books are not worth saving and wouldn't be read again, as you said.It is interesting to see what you make of them.Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14543678444899992860noreply@blogger.com
