The problem with floor-to-ceiling shelves in the study, is that I don't reach from floor to ceiling.
Today I attempt to sort my textbooks. Simon will have a bigger job, as he's done degrees in many more subjects than I have...
EDIT: Done. That was quick. It's a drop in the ocean; my textbooks take up one shelf-worth of the five.
I don't think I'll have much call in future for nuclear physics (though it was great fun at the time), optics, optoelectronics or electromagnetism. If we weren't moving house I'd be inclined to keep them in a dusty corner for sentimental purposes, but...
Ooh, Selling By Telephone. That can go, too.
EDIT II: Although, as the incoming tenants have said they're happy for us to leave most of the books on the shelves, I could keep them for the moment and have another think when I get back from Edinburgh. You never know, I might (magically) turn into a scientist again, or get a job where I have to model some aspect of some thing that's in one of those books.
