About me Bay-Area-born, sometimes-lapsed musician; degrees in music and ethnomusicology, with an interdisciplinary dissertation that trespassed incautiously into American studies and other fields; professionally active in museum information work (digital resources, metadata, etc.); long intrigued by intersections of media technologies and cultural meaning; and from a tender age, dangerously susceptible to bringing home more books than I may ever have time to read.

About my library Mostly academic books and primary sources already cataloged in a local database; after a mildly obsessive, initial spell of fun entering a few of those scholarly books (along with a hodgepodge of others wholly disconnected from anything even faintly resembling work) into LibraryThing, occasionally I now enter a few more or wander around a bit to explore other people's overlapping personal libraries--almost as interesting as glancing over spines on shelves at some less long-distance social gathering, glass in hand....
