Awesome, if you happen to make a pdf of The Alter of Qayin and Crown Prince of the Sabbat please link it up, those two have no PDF's that I know of.

For physical books, I keep a google doc inventory. Its not currently complete as I haven't had time to sit and inventory all my shelves & the bins I need to unpack, and some on the list I need to mark for deshelving. There are currently 267 on the list I think, but I have somewhere in the ball park of 1000 physical books. My focus leans more to witchcraft, folk magic, folklore, herbalism and peripheral topics. (Note that owning a book does not mean I place any sort of value, belief or agreement with its contents/author. I'll read just about anything, but some books I have only because it came bundled with others I was interested in.)
I think a few of my favorite books in my collection are probably:
1856 English copy of The Long Lost Friend - John George Hohman
1860 The Night Side of Nature - Crowe
1899 The Magic of the Horse Shoe - Lawrence
1864 Saxon Leechdoms vol 1-3 (Leechdoms, wortcunning and starcraft of early England)
I've been meaning to organize and inventory my digital library for quicker reference, but... The mere thought of that is horrifying really. I've saved so many books, articles and such over the years that its going to be its own mountain of a task.

You've been verbally warned not to request books outside the appropriate section. We take such things seriously here.

I don’t really understand how the forum works. I merely asked a question under your reply, or are people prohibited from asking questions under one’s replies?

What about "Don't request books in this section" don't you understand? This thread is about discussing people's physical book collections. All you've contributed here so far was asking for books in electronic format. Book discussions go into Book Discussions and Reviews, request for books go into Book Requests, it's hardly rocket science. Familiarize yourself with the individual forum sections, read the rules, post your request in the appropriate section after checking if the book in question hasn't been already requested. This is a private forum, not Facebook where you can post anything that runs through your head without thinking.

If you’re accustomed to meeting people who “post anything that runs through their head without thinking”, don’t assume it applies to everyone. I didn’t become a company executive by so doing.
If you’re so keen to penalise someone, I’m sure the person who made the comment that I replied to, should be your fall guy — cos he/she made the request that I merry followed up.
Turning off the comment section for such posts should do the trick, and not just going about insulting anyone for what exactly?
These are the issues with eartlings. SMH

I don't care what you are. This isn't the right place for arguing, in fact no place is. You violated the rules in another thread, got verbally warned, then committed the same violation in this one and got an official Warning - which will wear off in three days time anyway. This is how we roll here and you won't change that. End of discussion.
However, if you continue clogging this thread with off-topic posts, Probation or a Ban are distinct possiblities.

Please don't use this thread to make private book requests from individual members, go to Book Requests and make them public so more people will see them and thus increase your chances of actually obtaining them.

To forestall any more rule violation protests & my own schoolmarmish mod replies and to continue with the topic of this thread: My own collection is rather unremarkable except maybe for a 1973 hardcover edition of Crowley's "Magick without Tears". I also have Ouspensky's "In Search of the Miraculous", Bardon's IIH, Carroll's "Liber Null & Psychonaut" the rest are very well-thumbed paperbacks. I'm definitely not a physical and prize my gigs of occult PDFs.
