Looking for a new home for some old Catskills relics
After a long run of keeping them locked up in my house where nobody could see them since I never had enough time to rebuild my library and make them accessible again (let alone make out of game copies of them like I originally intended to do years ago)... I think it's about time my hundreds of player-written and event books get transferred to a new caretaker.
I'd like these to stay within the RP community, preferably handed off to someone I know enough to trust they will treat the books with respect and who is willing to take the time to make them publicly accessible in a library. Is anyone up to the task of taking on these books? Or is there someone you know that you think would be a good steward of these books?
I also have several items from numerous past events of all varieties that I would also like to pass along to worthy owners. If there is an event that has significance to any guilds or individuals (preferably in the RP community, but also outside it) that didn't get an item from that event (or got one, but has since lost it)? Are there any non-event rares that have significance to any guilds or individuals? Let me know, and I'll search through my collection to see if I have one and if so I'll probably be willing to give it away.

I hope you have some time to play again and retire in uo!

Don't get too excited about my return - I'm probably going to continue playing only about 10 hours a year... I'm just cleaning house so I don't need to worry about keeping my house up if I decide I want to save some money and switch to an Endless Journey account.
Also, I'm not sure if we ever crossed paths, I'm an old Catskills role-player (from 1998-2003) who returned to the shard a few years ago, but I would love to look through some of your stuff or just chat if you had the time. Not sure if you use ICQ, but mine is #6082388.
I don't have an ICQ any more. You can message me here or send me an email (uo@illandril.net) if you don't want to just post a comment here.
If anyone does ever make any out of game copies of any player-written books, I'd love copies - feel free to send me an email if you do (Aedon and Bink have both said they might do this, so consider coordinating with them if you plan to do this to share the workload).
