Happy New Year Thomas Jefferson

As I was adding a few more titles to our Libarything list this morning, I read a neat post about Thomas Jefferson. A group of Librarything users have created an account for Thomas Jefferson so we can now see what books he had in his library. Did you know that Thomas sold his personal library of 6,487 volumes to the Library of Congress to replace the library that was destroyed during the Battle of 1812.
Mr. J also had his own tags, which you can now use to search his collection. Do you share any books with this signer of the Declaration of Independence?

Speaking of American duty . . . don’t forget to vote in the NH Presidential Primary tomorrow. Canaan residents can vote at the Fire Station from 8:00am to 7:00pm.
