The Playful Antiquarian

Missed connection (in my referer stats)

January 30th, 2004

You were searching for the answer to a question ( “what bibliophile’s collection began the Library of Congress?”), and while the Google results made this weblog seem like a promising source of information, you did not find the answer here. But, if only you had stayed and explored, you may have discovered today’s American Memory Today in History feature and found your answer and more . . .

I usually do not respond to the search engine queries that I find in my referer statistics each day, but this one was too tempting and providential to ignore. Plus, now, I have somewhat earned my place as the number one result for that particular query by not only mentioning bibliophiles and collections and the Library of Congress at various points in this weblog’s existence, but also pointing to the real authority on this topic.
