Hi, I'm SaraB and am not a collector in the sense that everything is tidily waiting the judgement day. My books are used, and you can tell the best recipes b/c the pages are splattered.

I come from a long line of cookbook collectors, and definitely have triple digits, after I weeded a lot out...
I'm also an indexer, hoping to specialize in cookbooks (we've all seen some disasters, haven't we?) So this site is absolute catnip for me.

I love the idea of a cookbook reading club!

Best, Sara

Hi, I'm Julie from Sherman Oaks, California. I'm a knitter and use Ravelry which indexes all of my knitting books and magazines. A fellow knitter suggested that it would be nice to have a system that indexes cookbooks, so I searched around and found EYB. I am so pleased to find EYB! In a very short time I'm making much better use of my collection. It seems that the cookbook publishers should pitch in and help pay for the site since it promotes their products.

Hi Julie and welcome to EYB.  Yes t would be wonderful if publishers pitched in, since we are doing a great service to the publishing industry.  Many of them (though not all) do supply us with review copies of their books to index.  We are also trying to get them to publicize EYB more through their own sites e.g. by linking to the recipe listings on EYB.
