Tietoja minustaRecently graduated from the University of Michigan's School of Information where I completed both the Library & Information Services and the Archives & Records Management specializations. After a brief, but wonderful stint on a grant project at the Benson Ford Research Center, I'm currently working just about as close as you can get to my dream job. Go me.

My profile pic is a t-shirt design by Jeph Jacques, creator of the delightful web-comic Questionable Content. Thanks Jeph, you're awesome.

Oh, and I'm pretty much addicted to LibraryThing. Yup, pretty much.

Check out what I'm Currently Reading (or have recently finished reading, but haven't written a review for yet).

Happy Reading!

Tietoja kirjastostaniBooks tagged FOR SALE! are available for purchase through my half.com shop. Alternatively, you can contact me and we might be able to work something out.

I'm trying really hard to streamline my collection a bit, and to curb my impulsive book buying habit. Here, then, are a few of the rules I've implemented regarding purchases:

The Rules
1) If the book is available at my local library, I must first check it out and read it before buying a copy for myself.

2) Before the next book in a series is purchased, the previous book must first be read and reviewed.

3) I must read and review a book that I already own before purchasing another book by the same author.

4) Try not to go on unecessary subject binges--to start with, select one or two books at most.

The Exceptions
1) If I can get it signed by the author, or have personally met the author, I can purchase it.

2) I may purchase any works by Jacqueline Carey, Mary Doria Russell, Tristan Taormino, or Sarah Waters as long as I don't turn into a creepy stalker.

3) I may purchase any works relating to Islandia, Amber, or Firefly/Serenity.

About my tags
If you wanna know, just ask me.

About my ratings
My ratings may seem a little generous since I've not rated many books lower than 3 stars. Remember, however, most of these are books that I actually own. Books I don't like (or that I no longer find useful) will eventually be donated or sold.
