Antilibrary

You might have heard of the Japanese term tsundoku – the habit of buying books and letting them pile up unread. The antilibrary is the guilt-free version of it – in fact, it turns it into a positive thing: all the books you have discovered, ready for you to dive in when (if) the right time comes. I like how Adam calls all those unread books «scaffolding for future thinking». His short piece not only explains the idea, but gives advice on how to make it work for you.
