research goldmines

Once again, I am reminded to be grateful of my position at a large university, with all the informational resources that provides. Not only do I have electronic access to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (no more reliance on Wikipedia, and far more detail than I'd ever get there!), but I have the libraries.
And a list of nine more books I want to/need to go check out and read for Midnight Never Come. Doing a lot of research doesn't mean you reach a point where you know what you need to; it means you become steadily more aware of how much you don't know and should. (Nor am I yet to the point where I just have to tell myself to let it go, though sometimes I really wish I were.)
Ah well. Here we go again.
