  • Hitting the road

    We’re off tomorrow bright and early for points north, as in Sacramento. It’s time for the annual dog and pony show we call the California Library Association’s annual conference.

  • It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

    Well here it is, the first day of the rest of my working life. My resignation from USC is official today. I am completely, utterly done with them. It’s been a long, strange trip, my leaving. When I graduated from college back in June of 1981 I had one goal: travel the world (or as…
