Not many people are aware of this, but I love libraries. In school, I used to love playing with the card catalog, trying to figure out how many different ways I could look up the same book. (I was a strange child.) When I was in high school, I worked in the school’s library for about a year. One of my jobs was to sort new cards into their proper place in the card catalog. I knew I’d hit the big time when the librarian let me start filing cards in the accession catalog!

Let’s just say I have fond memories of the old card catalog.

Yesterday, I stumbled across Pile of Index Cards, which I’m guessing is part of the whole Hipster PDA/GTD thing just from looking at the site. If you poke around the site a little bit, you’ll notice a filing system that would warm any card catalog enthusiast’s heart. (It certainly made me smile!)

I keep trying to go index card, but my limited living space has made it something of a challenge. Dead Bunny’s book is sequenced on index cards. I’m planning to organize this year’s NaNoWriMo attempt on index cards.

Maybe I could create my own card catalog…
