Organizing Books and Media
In a surprise move, this blog is not about how to organize your books and media. It’s about the books and media that have helped me help you to organize your books and media.
Ready to learn about the skills and techniques of organizing?
I’d recommend taking a look at these resources and starting with whatever seems interesting to you. Any one of these could be enough to inspire and guide you for your entire project. Choosing the book/ video/ documentary/ podcast that appeals to you is likely to set you off in the right direction.
