A Real Estate Challenge The Noggles Share
Where to put the books:
    WHERE do you house 10,000 books? In an apartment with plenty of shelf space, of course.

    So that's what Thomas and Katherine Cole needed when they moved to New York.

    Mr. Cole, 71, who retired five years ago as a classics professor at Yale University, likes working from home, which means having on hand the thousands of reference works he might need. (He is writing a literary study of Ovid.)
We can aspire to 10,000 volumes. We've got to be at several thousand now. Our next house will need a room dedicated to being the library. Probably not a finished room in the basement which might flood. You see, we've thought it over.
