More about me
As a reader and researcher, I have had the privilege of studying and working in many libraries and archives in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. I like to keep a list of my favorite library nooks, which include quiet corners in:
1. Hatcher Graduate Library at the University of Michigan
2. SALT Research Library in Istanbul
3. ITU Library and Archives in Geneva
4. Mountain View Public Library
5. English Reading Room at UCLA
6. Lane Reading Room at Stanford Green Library
Do you have a favorite place to read and work at the Stanford Libraries? I'd love to hear about it!
