I agree wholeheartedly about the value of an inventory. I like to do it in the fall before the start of school. This way I can replace lost or damaged books, catch those glitches, and answer the question of whether a book was on the shelf at the beginning of school. Most importantly, it sets the collection in my mind again after the summer vacation. If I do the inventory at the end of the year I lose that advantage.
