| <blockquote> A library -- including its physical and digital arrangement and cataloguing system -- should aspire to be simple, elegant, and beautiful. Visitors should be able both to browse and search in the greatest ease and comfort. A library thus becomes a pataphor for the art of living itself. I have striven to follow these principles in approaching the sometimes daunting task of coming to terms with, managing and (re)organising the FoAM archive.</blockquote> | The [[http://fo.am/library/|Brussels FoAM library]] contains a growing collection of [[books]] of [[:types_of_books|various types]], journals and magazines, a [[:foam_material_library|materials library]], a potpourri of CDs and DVDs, and a vast archive of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_literature|grey literature]]. Much of this has been digitally catalogued and accessible online at FoAM's [[https://www.zotero.org/groups/foam_library/items|Zotero group library]]. |

It offers hints and tips on [[how to find stuff|finding stuff]] and [[how to add stuff|adding stuff]] to the catalogue, and includes [[cataloguing notes]] and overall [[library notes]] for those curious about our particular approaches to the library's information plumbing. |
