The WSJ reports on the benefits of READING A REAL BOOK! Take a chance, sit down, open that book and read. The upside is real. Maybe behind the dreaded pay-wall but take a chance.
My main interests are book collecting as a hobby, vocation, and/or disorder of mind and private library development. I'll be writing about books I love, books I collect, new books, old books, banned books, illustrated books, rare books, libraries, books as art and artifact, and anything else related to books that captures my attention. I am expanding my book focus to include galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAMS) as I earn my MA in Museum Studies via Johns Hopkins University.
