Thanks to Google, I was informed that today is Dr. Samuel Johnson's 308th birthday. The man who wrote the first comprehensive Dictionary of the English language. No small accomplishment!
On a more local level, I was back to the medical library today to visit the VCU Tompkins-McCaw archives. I hope to forge ahead on a collaborative project (with an archivist), culminating in a published perspective on the role of the medical archivist in the modern medical library: challenges and opportunities.
Why? Because I like books and I like visiting the rare and limited collections.
