#introduction I've been a techie #academic #librarian since 2001: link resolver, ezproxy, #digitization, #digitalpreservation. Now I'm in the #DigitalScholarshipCentre, teaching & consulting on anything digital & scholarly. I'm a #philologist underneath (Ph.D. on #medievalLatin lit). My research is half #digitalscholarship / #digitalhumanities tools, half a blog / #biography on my g'father #RobertCBinkley (d.1940), who pioneered a lot of what I do, but in the twilight of the #predigital age.
