Username: Pumpingstationone Password: ps1frocks After adding, create a tag for the book. The tags are library of congress classification.

==Donations==
== Donations ==
Please only donate books that are on the Wishlist or are updated versions of the ones we have.
Please don't bring books to the space unless they are on our [[Library Wishlist]] or they are a more recent edition of a book already on our shelves. If you have a book that you think may be useful that does not fall into these categories, please post on the mailing list.
Put the book in the green basket by the shelves for the librarian to add. If the basket is not there, set them next to the shelves.
(It's not that we don't want awesome books: we just want to avoid being buried in them!)
