- About My Library
- Eclectic. I have a little fetish for trolling for used books from stores, library sales, church bazaars, and street vendors. Special sweet spot for art books, correspondence collections, and NYC odd shelf books.
<a href="http://www.librarything.com/profile/lisapeet">My Library</a> at <a href="http://www.librarything.com">LibraryThing</a> - About Me
- I'm the executive editor at Library Journal—I write library news, talk to library people, and will sing the praises of libraries endlessly, if you let me. Journalist, essayist, reviewer, visual artist, baker, Library & Information Science degree holder, lefty (politically, not handed), New Yorker, owner of a number of beasts.
I'm also senior editor of Bloom, a literary site about writers (and some other artists) who first published after age 40.
