The equipment I am using
I don't need many things to apply my reading method...
1. markers
If cover pages are removed it is important to know which book you reading: That's why I mark the side of the book with my barcode system. I use markers
with different colours. So even in a big heap I find the book I am looking for.
2. big ducktape
If you tear the books, sometimes pages get loose, to prevent their loss, a big ducktape is recommended.
3. cover storage
bookcovers are an emotional bridge to the books I have read. That's why I I keep them.
I cut them with a scissor to keep only the minimum and store them in transparent plastic bags in a drawer.
4. bookshelf
The
bookshelf and my dreambed see below are the central part of my reading strategy.
5. dreambed
Due to a malfunction of my bed. The slatted frame of my bed (parts of it) always fell down. I discovered the possibility of books to prevent this and so I can store many books under my bed and so build my dreambed.
6. google sheets
To administer all the books i am reading and have been reading I use google sheets
7. whatsapp
To keep information about books when i am traveling I use whatsapp as it is easier to use than google sheets online. At home I transfer the infos to google sheets
8. bag
When travelling i take many pages with me in my laptop bag so i don't run the risk to run out of good books
9. Trashbag or wastepaperbin
When at home I use a trash bag to get rid of read pages or book debris when travelling I use trash cans.
