Oracle: Librarian of Prey

Some links from the last week or so that have caught my eye:

• Do you need to read books to be clever?
  Mildly horrifying article about reading/the lack of in Britain. It is the national year of reading!
• Nature Journal digitalises archive
  The scientific journal Nature has digitalised its entire archive, from 1869 onwards.
• Bibliochaise
  This comes to my attention frequently because I waaaaant it. Oh, how I want it! You can even play around with the colours of the chair and cushion.
• US U-turn over Scottish authors
  The Library of Congress has reversed their decision to reclassify Scots authors as English. As is only correct!

Essays are all in, firm resolutions have been made about not slacking off this semester and a more frequent posting schedule should hopefully return!
