About

About the author or curator:

Until August 2022, I served a university in Fairfield, Connecticut, USA as University Librarian.  I have retired from librarianship, but not from life.

My academic background includes degrees in librarianship (M.S. Columbia University), and Church History (Ph.D., Princeton Theological Seminary), .

I'm continue to develop a project regarding the development of liturgical allegory in the early work of Amalarius of Metz (a continuation of my dissertation work). This will include a digital edition (compliant with TEI) of relevant pages of the key manuscript in Zurich, and  fragments leaves of another manuscript (whereabouts now unknown).  In 2008 I completed digital mark-up and presentation of 36 papyri in Trexler Library, Muhlenberg College (where I worked 2001-2006). A long-term project is reading the whole of Karl Barth's Church Dogmatics / Die Kirchliche Dogmatik.

Interests

Academic librarianship, digital librarianship, digital resource management, digital preservation, digital publishing, library information technology, history of Christianity,  Karl Barth, medieval studies, and baseball (Cubs, Mets).
