How cool is THIS? Apparently Art Garfunkel has kept a list of the books that he has read over the last 30 years. Listing what someone has read over an extended period of time provides an interesting profile of a person, letting you see what has influenced them over time. Kind of like getting a peek into their minds at various stages of their life. With the technologies we have available today, it should be easy for us to keep a similar list. And whenever you start keeping that list, you’ll wish you’d started earlier.

Check it out Art Garfunkel’s library. It’s quite interesting and inspiring.

Thanks to Steven Cohen at Library Stuff who got it from Jessa Crispin at Bookslut who got it from David at Largehearted Boy.
