| Services Provided: |
I'm the fellow to contact if you are interested in
Government Documents or one of our Special Collections.

the History and Political Science departments. |
| Personal Interests: |
I have a number of personal non-library-related
interests, the major ones being: 1) the Sherlock Holmes stories and
novels (known collectively as The Canon); 2) Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle, the man as well as the author; and
3) horror and science fiction films, particularly those delightful "B
movies" from the 1950's and 1960's. |
