    The Mermaid Libary

    Finally I'm putting my library knowledge and by LibraryandInformationTechnician diploma to good use!
    LauraLWatson in another thread suggested there be a Mermaid Library. so using the books that i already have on hand, and the list of mermaid novels that were mentioned on here, and my super special awesome skills as a librarian, I'm compiling a list of books along with their ISBNs, genre, subject, and other information into one huge "e-library" of some sorts. yass!!


    It'll be hosted here: http://ssmermaidlibrary.blogspot.ca/
    and you can gladly put your review about the books in the comment section.

    Still in it's beginning stages atm.

    Fantastic!!! This has been sorely lacking! I have a list of titles I can send you. Is there a tutorial on how to update? I don't want to screw up your format.

    Here's the "form" to submit :P lol. Nah you can just post on here.


    Title, author(s), illustrator(s)
    Description,
    Publisher, latest copyright date, publication place(city,state/province,country)
    Isbn number

    The info is usually found on one of the first pages. The ones we tend to ignore lol. It's in fine print.
    Or if you can't find it a picture will do ^^

    This is an amazing idea Seaglass Siren
    Now I just need to find more time to read. I'm still in the middle of A feast for Crows.
    I did get some free mermaidy books on my kindle, maybe I will put them on this library.

    yay hope it's of use to you! almost done with my physical collection. still have vicious deep, deep blue, rogue wave, mermaid's madness, and a few graphic novels and children's books. i have other books that have nothing to do with mermaids but have everything to do with water (mystery/thriller novels). wondering if i should include those.

    I work in a comic shop, I could let you know about mermaid comics that are out or upcoming. If you're interested of course.

    Yay for Comic Readers!

    I have a list on my computer at home (ironically I'm currently at work until close tonight so I can't get to it at the moment) and I'll get a list off to you as soon as I can. I also have been compiling a list of comics that have mermaids on the covers but I don't know if that would fall under anything you may have in mind.
