I used to have a bookshelf, but then computers and the internet became a thing, so pretty much all my references are digital.

I do miss my college books. After graduating I held on to them for about 2-3 years, then went back to the bookstore and sold them, because I never used them.

Now looking back, I wish I would've kept them since my dad kept some of his books and it was fun going back looking through the books he used. I guess I still have time to buy them all back, but am I really going to use my digital signals processing book again? Or my physics & chemistry books? What sort of information do they provide that google couldn't?

I know the feeling. I decided to keep my books mainly for the sentimental aspect, more than the practicality. I’m sure a lot of my books are out-of-date by now, but I like remembering what I learned from.

I wish they were on a shelf so when my kids get older they can look at the books and think, "dang, dad really is smart!"

Fair enough.

 

[DLD PE]

Well all my books/study material are scattered on the floor in my home office.  I bring a small bookbag to work with stuff I want to look at during the day in my "spare" time lol.

or dang, dad really needed all these books to do his job? :dunno: lolll

For the longest time (I guess 2-3 years) my wife and I used our chemistry and physics books to elevate the TV above the speakers.  Most expensive TV stand we ever purchased.

Or, more than likely, "Dang, they we still printing books when dad was in school?"

I took physics and calc in jr college. The total cost for both books almost exceeded my monthly tuition payments.

I'm sure I've already said this somewhere, but I actually used my dad's DE book to teach myself DE between semesters. I went through the entire book just reading and working every practice problem. Then when I took DE the following semester, it was a breeze. I still have that book. It's really good.

I almost forgot my dad also kept his calculus book! But, when I was younger he and I glued all the pages together and then hollowed out the book. Now it sits on his bookshelf with a 32 revolver in it lol
