About meI am an undergraduate student in history at Montana State University, and my focus is the history of science. Of particular interest is Darwin, evolutionary theory, and the history of natural history. These interests are well-reflected in my library catalogue, which at the moment (10/26/07) is far from being complete.

UPDATE (1/2/09): My wife and I purchased a library-style barcode scanner, which has made the task of adding books to my library very simple. Expect to see many additions in the weeks to come!

About my libraryI continue to add books to my library on a regular basis. Thrift shops and library used book sales are dangerous places for me to be. I know I will never be able to read every book I own, for as David Quammen writes in The Boilerplate Rhino, "Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper." I like to think that although I may never read a particular book, there is the possibility of my accessing information from it if I ever needed to.

Hi Michael,

I notice that like me you are interested in the 'History of Natural History', did you know that there is a 'Society for the History of Natural History'? It is based at the Museum of Natural History, London.

Best Wishes

I've added yours to my list of interesting libraries, due to our common interests in Darwin, evolution, and history of science. I will be adding a lot more from these areas in coming months.
Welcome aboard.

Great Blog.
