Oh, love the photo Corina Marinescu but, hey, "prehistoric" ... is not that too drastic for all us here that used those bibliography cards before the personal computers were implemented in libraries? ;)
Now I love the post, and its premise. But as a historian, are little cards with words really 'prehistoric', wouldn't that be simply 'historic googling.' Although I guess that wouldn't have the same ring, would it? Even I had to use these in college.

ReplyDeleteI remember using the card catalog (as it was known 'round here) to find books.
ReplyDeleteActually ran across one of the cabinets at an antique store a while ago. I wanted it, but I just had zero use (and space) for it.
