Hi Melanie! Please to meet you, er... "formally". Funny, I just followed you on Twitter without knowing you were the same person behind the Barrick Twitter feed! I just saw "museum girl" or whatever your profile says. I also checked out your website -- your photos are incredible!

I really like Shelfari, but I have probably a thousand books, maybe more, and so far all I've listed are the ones I could import from my list of books I've bought or rated at Amazon, which is only about 200 titles. That's why I was tweeting about how to get books in without buying a scanner. So my list here is a little non-representative.

Your list is small but awesome! Keith Moon, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, Douglas Adams, Dorothea Lange, Robert Frank, and Andre Breton -- incredible! And you're lucky enough to be involved in the best museum in town (which isn't saying much on it's own, since it's just about the only one left, but there's a huge gab between Barrick and #2 as far as I'm concerned). I've brought my anthropology class at CSN there every semester I've taught it -- Mannetta is always kind enough to lead them through the Pro-Columbian collection, which is astounding. (I am actually running out of adjectives here...) Unfortunately, I haven't taught anthro for a year; I've been teaching WMST at UNLV and CSN instead. So I haven't been to the museum lately -- maybe I should drop by when I'm on campus some time...

Thanks for the note!
