I've got a cue-cat scanner that I can donate to the space, I'll bring it in 
and put it on the hack shelf next time I'm in.

I could get into a fun esoterical arguments on different types of 
cataloging, but I figure whoever is doing this do something reasonable. 
(though I generally agree Dewey might be suboptimal)
 
It's too bad Tim Spalding from Librarything isn't in the area, otherwise I'd 
think he'd love to come in and maybe give a talk.
