I'm famous!

Okay, not really. But I am inordinately excited about having my name appear not once, but twice, in what will likely be the best Information Science book of 2015. Let me show you...


This is the book
Now turn to the acknowledgments section...

On page xxii
Did you see it!! There I am in the sea of collaborators!! Next to one of my favorite people in the world, Peter Darch!!

And if that weren't exciting enough, turn the page...

Page xxv
There I am again!! Immortalized for all eternity due to my reference contributions and ability to help curate a massive bibliography (71 pages at print). Maybe I am a wee bit too excited about this, but it's pretty cool to see a book go from inception to print. I've seen numerous drafts of this book with comments and questions, and I know the painstaking detail that went into writing this book. For one year, I had a chance to see how a brilliant person researches and writes and, I have to tell you, it was inspiring.

I cannot wait to sit down and read the finished product cover to cover. Congratulations, Dr. Borgman.

And thanks for making me famous.
