Hi Kelby, Funny you should mention alchemy! I'm reading a book on Harry Potter (which is currently outsourced) where the author goes on and on about the huge number of alchemical symbols in the HP series. He recommends a couple of books on alchemy that I was planning on getting, to put into the collection, one by Jacob Burckhardt and another by Mircea Eliade. I'll let you know when the books are in the collection.

I haven't been able to find much on Bookshare. Can anyone recommend anything?
