I might be wearing a Wes baseball cap, or, alternately, my Library Raid Gear, we&#8217;ll see.  Email <a href=\"http:\/\/www.librarytechtonics.info\/cgi-bin\/bw-contact.cgi\">Andrea Mercado<\/a> for more information.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Wesleyan has the most amazing library for a University of its size and I spent much time wandering through (and sleeping in) the stacks.  Old libraries like that have such a magical quality.  My decision to become an academic librarian is definitely related to those fond memories I have of Olin Library.  I wonder how many other Wes alums were equally inspired by Olin.  I graduated from Wes in &#8217;99 and would love to share Wesleyan-related stories with other alums\/librarians.  I know there are a few of us out there!  Otherwise, I&#8217;ll just have fun hanging with Andrea. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrea, one of my librarian heroes, has come up with this genius idea for a Librarians and Wesleyan Connection Meetup during ALA.
