yes, well that's obviously because you received your Lieberry Science training
away back in the Dark Ages, before the Broad, Sunlit Uplands of the
Informatics Revolution, Tom.
you're lucky you have tenure there or you would be a ripe candidate for an
appropriate dose re-education.
the guy i'm dealing with here at Indiana --who replaced B.J. Irving, who
*built* this quite good research Art library over a period of 40 years-- has
an M.F.A. (in Photography) and, of course, the obligatory M.L.S., and actually
*explicitly* stated (in the public presentation he gave before he was hired)
that it was clear to him that most everything needed, book-wise, would be
easily available on-line "within a few years" and implied (at least) that most
all of this smelly old hard-copy shelf furniture we got lying around here
would be obsolete anyway shortly after that.
of course, the above rant is just Sour Grapes on my part, since my most recent
suggestions for book purchases have been greeted with the Brilliant Response,
"Why don't you get this on Interlibrary Loan?"
i can't really think of an argument against that.
Rutgers does ILL, doesn't it?
Problem Solved.
i don't know why i didn't think of that...
obviously, i need to take some Lieberry Science courses.
