I'm writing a short essay (a subsection of a chapter) about the art of purposeful browsing. Came across Virginia Woolf's remarks on "the learner" versus "the reader" in her "Hours in a Library." Anyone know of other essays, musings, speculations on these kinds of themes? #AmReading #Reading #libraries #browsing #research @bibliolater ?

@bibliolater Will cite that piece. I'd like to add your name in my Acknowledgements section in the book, should I list you as Bibliolater, or would you like to DM me your name?
@coastalhistory If possible I would like to remain unacknowledged but please accept my heartfelt thanks.
@bibliolater I will respect your wishes, of course.
