Marginalia and Other Crimes – a display of “damaged and defiled” books from the Cambridge University Library. While I admit to writing and dog-earing the pages of my own books, I’d never dream of doing it to someone else’s. I like books. (Link via MetaFilter.)
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

You’d be amazed at what people do to library books…so keep them away from your mouth….
My instructors at school have told me some doozies.
