About meSmith College '06, and Simmons College Graduate School of Library and Information Science August '09. My parents gave me a blind stamper when I got the M.L.S. I used to get paid to catalog old, Jewish books (http://www.danwymanbooks.com). I know more dead languages than living ones.

About my libraryHeavy on women's studies, fantasy, music, dead Northern European languages, and college lit texts. Features a full leather Works of William Hogarth, three different editions of The hobbit, and one of only 200 copies of Some Oxford scandals : letters by Lewis Carroll.

Greetings! I'm living in California now, but I grew up on the East Coast and went to Boston University. Anyway, I saw your comment about cataloging old Jewish books, which interested me, so I took a look at your profile. Now I'm wondering what "dead Northern European languages" you study. Does Brittany count as "Northern European"? My wife and I went there for our honeymoon, and I've been interested in finding a book in that language (not something very recent, but something a bit older, if at all possible) ever since. Anyway, any study of ancient languages must be fascinating. Cheers from Mendocino County, CA.
Welcome! =)
