About My Library
I've stopped entering new books so this library reflects what I owned and had read circa Feb 2009.
About Me
I currently live in Cambridgeshire and am a librarian in an academic library. I am studying for my MSc in information and library studies via distance learning and am very interested in information skills and resource awareness. I am passionate about uniting a library user with their required relevant information. My current research interests include user information seeking behaviour and serendipity in the stacks. I find history and literature a constant fascination; I also have a keen interest in the history of the book and Germanic culture.
I listen to music and enjoy going to gigs, I find creative writing extremely therapeutic and I read widely in order to broaden my mind and escape into other worlds.
I like to travel and experience different cultures. I enjoy contemplating folklore and our explanations for the mysteries of the Universe.
I like cats, and schnauzers, and it is my aim to someday provide a home for one. Other than all that, I like watching Dr Who and Heroes, alternative comedy and hammer horror films, good red wine, talking with my husband and my friends, and generally questioning the universe.
