International Space Station Russian collection!

We cataloged the IntlSpaceStation library from 2008, but it was only the English stuff. The Russian cosmonaut just tweeted a photo of some of the Russian books!

Here's his Tweet, with picture: https://twitter.com/Anton_Astrey/status/961316740360744960

Who can help catalog them?

Can you PM me the password for the profile?

There is a problem on the profile with the author page link.

I've updated the password and put the new one on the old wiki page:

>3 MarthaJeanne: - It took me a while to parse this, but I got it eventually. Not sure why the account is marked as an author. I've made a change that might cure it after a while, let's see.

I just had dinner with katya0133 and the other ALAMW meet-upers. She said she could identify up to eight of the books!

OK, I think I have wrung every last bit of info I can from those photos. There are two I can only partially identify—I can't make out the title on a book by Nicholas Roerich and another by Ilf and Petrov—but I was able to fully identify and add 12 others (some down to the edition level).

Fun project!

Fun for us bystanders, too! Thanks for your time on this, Katya0133.

Let's tag them with something, right? There's already a tag for "seen in photographs." Separate these somehow, I think.

I'll do it later if nobody else wants to do it.

Maybe something like "Seen in Anton Shkaplerov photographs"? (Also, I added one more book!)

It doesn't seem that LibraryThing is a great home of Russians; every Cyrillic titled book in this library that didn't have an English translation was unique in LibraryThing. Maybe there's some combining problems; Omar Khayyám's book is probably a combination that hasn't been made.

I would guess that there are more German readers than Russian readers on LT, but most recent German books that I add start as singletons. If they are translations they have to be manually combined (without suggestions). If only in German there may be suggestions, may be other copies without suggestions, but often remain singletons.

But of course we see the same thing in Early Reviewer books. A work doesn't start sweeping most copies in until at least four or five manual combinations have been made. In each language.

Awesome!
