. (Final grade for this website: A+)
Originally, this site was an informational website consisting of pathfinders for the purpose of accumulating information on popular topics in one place for easy accessibility. This site's intended audience was anyone searching for information on a particular topic, although this site was created with students, researchers, and librarians in mind.
As I tried to expand the site to add more topics and information, however, I realized the project was beyond my limited time and resources. Also, a number of comprehensive reference/directory sites already exist (such as Google , Yahoo! , and DMOZ ). So, I decided to gear my site toward my own personal and professional interests, which I hope others may find as useful, informative, and interesting as I do.
The content and features of this site will be added and updated regularly, as time permits. By viewing content contained on this site, you agree to the terms of the disclaimer. Please submit any ideas and requests for content/features via one of the methods offered on the contact page.

My name is Lori
and I live in Rhode Island. I am a graduate (December 2005) of the Graduate School of Library & Information Sciences at the University of Rhode Island. Before matriculating to URI, I majored in English (with a minor in writing) at Rhode Island College (B.A., 2001), where I also wrote articles for the Entertainment section of The Anchor .
In my liesure time, I enjoy reading and purchasing books for my growing collection. I am an Egyptology buff and a collector of Egyptian art. I also enjoy tap dancing , bicycling, hosting dinner parties for friends, writing fiction, solitary walks, squirrel-watching, re-teaching myself to play the violin, and training my cat to sit on command.
I always look forward to hearing from visitors, so please see the contact me page to send thoughts, ideas, comments, critiques, or just a friendly greeting.
