Library

This is my working library: that is, it's all the books I keep at school because I think it's useful to have them there, or that they're of interest to math students or otherwise mathematical people. I have a larger library -- chiefly fiction -- at home, and sometimes things wander back and forth, so this list may not be completely accurate.
