Welcome to the group. Considering you've only listed 250 titles we share quite a lot of stuff. I noticed you're in Chicago and also belong to the Health Sciences Librarians group. Which library do you work in? Years ago I was AD for tech services at the American Hospital Association Library. If you weren't in Chicago when E. reigned at AHA and as MLA President ask around. It was a roller coaster ride. I moved to Pittsburgh about 15 years ago and now work as a consortia director for academic libraries. I direct PALCI, the CARLI of PA. Have you read The Last Lecture? I knew Randy Pausch slightly. Pittsburgh is a small town and CMU is one of my member schools. It was a sad time here in academia when he died.

Will you be at ALA in Chicago? If you are or you aren't maybe we can still meet up for coffee or a drink.

Hope to hear from you.

Dan
